Trying to install a local copy of Galaxy for evaluation. Downloaded the "stable" version using:

I am installing it on a Centos 5 x86_64 Linux kernel which has python 2.4.3 installed. When running "sh setup.sh" the installation stops with an error building the "python_daemon" egg. In checking, it is trying to download/build python_daemon 1.5.5 (specified in the eggs.ini). This version of python_daemon uses syntax that depends on python >= 2.5. Your "README" indicates....
Galaxy requires Python 2.4, 2.5 or 2.6. To check your python version, run: ...
Does Galaxy still run under python 2.4?
John,
It should, and the fact that it doesn't is a bug. I should have a fix for this shortly.

Hi John and Nate, But to make the tool search work in the web interface you'll need Python 2.5 or higher, so it's probably a better idea to get a newer version of Python anyway. (We have Galaxy on two CentOS servers, installed a newer Python in addition to the OS supplied Python 2.4 and modified the environment for Galaxy so it uses the newer version: was easy to do and works well.) Cheers, Pi
(PS: I have lots of Linux/Perl experience, but virtually no python expertise.)
