I have following issue: The Debian server I am working on has python 2.4 but I need to run openpyxl which only works on 2.6+.

I don't have administrative rights to install a newer version of python. Can I run openpyxl on 2.4, or maybe can I run python 2.6 without installation?

Can you install python-2.6 in your home folder? – Maxim Yegorushkin Jul 29 '11 at 13:59
No, I can't install even there. Maybe could I copy python files and open interpreter manually by path? – Djent Jul 29 '11 at 14:08

This seems to be more a question of "how can I install 'X' given constraint 'Y'?" and as such should be migrated to serverfault or maybe superuser – TokenMacGuy Jul 29 '11 at 14:16
so maybe, is there a way to use openpyxl in python 2.4 – Djent Jul 29 '11 at 16:04

You could try to use Portable Python to run your code, as it has a 2.7.2.1 version, but I'm not sure about it. I've used this before but never with packages.
