[Tutor] Find a good linux distribution with python.

[Michael Bernhard Arp Sørensen]

Hi there.

I'm on an eternal quest to find the perfect linux distro to base my work on.
I'm currently running Ubuntu because its told that the Ubuntu creator Mark
Shuttleworth is a python hacker. Therefore there's a lot of python stuff in
the repository.

What distro do you run?

Another point: There's so many modules on the Internet, that it's difficult
to get some sort of overview. That's why a distro is such a great idea
because so many packages with python stuff is included. Could you get any
kind of overview over python modules/libs other than a repo in a distro?

I have concluded that there's no such thing as a perfect distro. Only some
distros come close to perfection. In that case I was wondering if I should
create my own python repo to set up a good working environment for
development. That way I could use any distro. On the other hand, any code I
migth write would be difficult for others to use.

Any ideas or comments?

I use emacs with rope, ipython and python. I like those in newer versions if
not bleeding edge.

Med venlig hilsen/Kind regards
