[Qgis-user] ArcGIS 10 and QGIS 1.7

[Andreas Neumann]

 Hi,

 I don't think that QGIS' ArcGIS' python installations get into their 
 ways. I think they both bring along their own local python 
 installations. Do you have any indication that the two interfere with 
 each other or is it just an assumption?

 It is quite common that machines have multiple python installations in 
 parallel.
