You should have seen the message 'leopard is not yet supported' or |
| 20 |
something like that when bootstrapping ;) |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Gentoo/Alt has only been working on Leopard for a couple of days and the |
| 23 |
docs aren't up-to-date yet. Naturally, one doesn't have to bootstrap |
| 24 |
python 2.4 on leopard. One wouldn't have to bootstrap python 2.5 either |
| 25 |
-- let's see what happens once 2.6 or 3.0 is out ;) |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
As for su -- i suppose it wasn't even built because you're not root (or |
| 28 |
not logged in as root) -- removing it is therefore not necessary, but |
| 29 |
trying doesn't hurt. Not removing it when it was built would hurt ;) |

PS: as you can see in /usr/portage/dev-lang/python, 2.4 is no longer |
| 35 |
being used anywhere but in bootstrapping |
