Binaries

Anaconda

If you use the marvellous Python distribution Anaconda or Miniconda you can install Stackless-Python from the anaconda.org channel stackless.

  1. Add the channel to your configuration:

    $ conda config --add channels stackless
    
  2. Add the (meta-) package "stackless":

    $ conda install stackless
    

The package "stackless" utilises the conda feature mechanism to replace the regular C-Python by Stackless-Python.

Unix and Linux users

Please use the source code to compile your own copy of Stackless Python or have a look at Miniconda.

Mac OS X users

Note: We need volunteers to build and develop Stackless for macOS.

The best way to get a current Stackless 2.7 is to use the Anaconda package. Unfortunately, recent Stackless 3.x versions do not work on macOS. See issue #173.

Microsoft Windows users

If you do not wish to compile Stackless Python yourself, we provide precompiled MSI installers. These installers can be used instead of the corresponding regular C-Python installer. Alternatively you can install them alongside C-Python, if you choose the "Install just for me" option.

Installers

  • Python 3.7.2 x86: stackless-3.7.2.exe (25414448 Byte) (md5 168b919dadb42585f1f82638ec85b815)
  • Python 3.7.2 x86 webinstall: stackless-3.7.2-webinstall.exe (1307216 Byte) (md5 48d9684fa2ad9b30631b4e6c7017eb81)
  • Python 3.7.2 x86-64: stackless-3.7.2-amd64.exe (26178579 Byte) (md5 aa8c6e851cfbe0c0e72c7440abc7bb12)
  • Python 3.7.2 x86-64 webinstall: stackless-3.7.2-amd64-webinstall.exe (1344869 Byte) (md5 beb9f4214b1765cd84369c81221041a8)
  • Python 2.7.16: python-2.7.16-stackless.msi (19.6 MB) (md5 766d8ee73fce13d8c6ecc1dc92a92989) This installer uses the same upgrade code as the regular 32bit C-Python 2.7 installer. Therefore this installer will replace a 32bit C-Python 2.7 installation (and vice-versa).
  • Python 2.7.16 amd64: python-2.7.16.amd64-stackless.msi ( MB) (md5 f46074416ff8df4bd15f97e64b8253a2) This installer uses the same upgrade code as the regular 64bit C-Python 2.7 installer. Therefore this installer will replace a 64bit C-Python 2.7 installation (and vice-versa).

Debug Files for *.msi-Installers

Embeddable Zip Files

PyPI Installer

Warning

This installer is now deprecated, because

  • it is not compatible with newer Linux distributions
  • it depends on a misfeature of the ancient distutils
  • Miniconda provides a better alternative

Note

On Debian based system the pip installer needs to compile some missing modules. Therefore you need to install various development packages. See https://bitbucket.org/akruis/slp-installer/issue/5.

If you are using Python 2.7.x (x>=3) on Linux amd64 or Windows you can use the PyPI stackless-python installer. It works with pip or easyinstall from distribute or setuptools. It is compatible with virtualenv. Simply run:

> pip install stackless-python

or:

> easy_install stackless-python
