[16:49:51] <Joseph> I am on CentOS 6.4 and I need to go through an outbound http proxy. However, even though i specify the proxy option, pip keeps hitting a network unreachable error. I know there was some issues wth proxy functionality but i thought it was fixed. Any guidance would be appreciated.
[21:24:15] <kgadek> hi. Is it possible to compile a fresh python into a fresh virtualenv? I have CentOS with outdated python, I'd like to get it working only in a sandbox. The alternative: ./configure --prefix=~/foo and then virtualenv it.
