Hi all. Is it okay (and safe) to have both versions of wxPython installed on the same machine, or should you choose one or the other?
In case you have to choose just one, do you need to reinstall the documentation as well, or does that work with either version?
Thanks,
John

Yes, it is designed to allow multiple installs. See: http://wiki.wxpython.org/index.cgi/MultiVersionInstalls
In case you have to choose just one, do you need to reinstall the documentation as well, or does that work with either version?
The docs and demo and samples are a separate install package because they are to be shared between the runtime installs.

2.6
Useful comment I would say 
Was it referred to wxPython 2.6? Well, IIRC, Multiversion Installs were working from 2.5.3.

Uhm, it didn't seem to me so big on Windows and Linux Ubuntu... But maybe I don't remember correctly... Are Mac build so different from one release to another?
