Installing Python 3.0 on Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex
Posted: December 4, 2008 Filed under: Cyberlife, Linux & OpenSource, Python, ubuntu | Tags: python python3 ubuntu install 21 Comments »UPDATE (Dec, 7): apt-get install python3 works now. this might be the prefered way for most of us.
Based on sofen’s blog’s post about python 2.6
This was the easiest thing I did recently. It went so smooth that this post is totally redundant.
Seven commands and you are all unicode.
Step 1: Make sure you got all the prerequisites
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential libncursesw5-dev libreadline5-dev libssl-dev libgdbm-dev libbz2-dev libc6-dev libsqlite3-dev tk-dev g++ gcc
Step 2: Grab the bits, extract them and build them
$ wget http://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.0/Python-3.0.tgz $ tar xvzf Python-3.0.tgz $ cd Python-3.0/ $ ./configure $ make $ sudo make install
That’s it my friend. You now have the best software development platform in the entire universe!
$ python3.0 Python 3.0 (r30:67503, Dec 4 2008, 21:27:40) [GCC 4.3.2] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>>
Good luck and enjoy the sweetness of open source software!

Getting rid of Insert Ubuntu Disc Message
Posted: January 14, 2008 Filed under: Linux & OpenSource, ubuntu 9 Comments »This “Insert Disc” message was annoying and frustrating almost at any time I was trying to install a new software on my Ubuntu (7.10 gutsy-gibbon).
Media change: please insert the disc labeled 'Ubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon_ - Release i386 (20071016.1)' in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter
If you want to get rid of it you should comment out the line that point to the “CD-ROM” Source.
Type the following in the terminal:
gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
Locate the line that reads:
deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon_ - Release i386 (20071016)]/ gutsy main restricted
and comment it out
#deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon_ - Release i386 (20071016)]/ gutsy main restricted
Save the file, close the editor, back in the terminal window type:
sudo apt-get update
Good luck and thank you for choosing Ubuntu.
