homebrew-python

This Homebrew tap provides formulæ to install multiple Python versions.

We currently support Python 3.3.6, Python 3.4.3, and Python 3.5.0.

How do I install these formulæ?

brew install zoidbergwill/python/<formula>

Or brew tap zoidbergwill/python and then brew install <formula>.

Usage

$ brew install python34
$ pip3.4 install -U pip setuptools

We don't ever install to pip3, pyvenv, or python3, since we don't know which Python version you want to use in general. Eventually I hope to add support for that somehow, though using pyenv might be a better solution.

Troubleshooting

Please check the main Homebrew troubleshooting guide and then open an issue in this tap.
