Hi everyone,
I managed to install python2.6 on DreamHost following this guide. I also tried to easy_install "lxml" but it fails horribly.
Anyone ever accomplished this?
TIA

You should try http://wiki.dreamhost.com/Django and http://wiki.dreamhost.com/Python#Building_a_custom_version_of_Python - it contains the most up to date info.

Thanks for your reply, but it's not what I'm having trouble with. I already installed my custom version of Python and the corresponding version of setuptools (easy_install). What I can't do is install lxml. Apparently, the servers at DreamHost don't have the development libs to compile etree.

In this case you'd have to try recompiling all required dependencies yourself manually. The list of dependencies can be seen on http://packages.debian.org/lenny/python-lxml
