On my 32-bit BLFS system, I was building 'glib-2.48.0' (the latest).
It failed on 'make'.  I had run 'configure' WITHOUT the suggested
 --with-python=/usr/bin/python3
(served me right!  Or did it?)

In '/usr/bin' I had:

  python2 -> python2.7
 python -> python2
 10307 bytes, python2.7 (Python 2.7.11 - the latest)

and

 python3 -> python3.5
12566 bytes, python3.5 (Python 3.5.1 - the latest).

No big deal;  I pointed 'python' to Python 3, i.e.,
 python -> python3

and 'make' worked fine (as expected?) this time.
However, all this got me thinking:

QUESTION
What is the recommended Python configuration in '/usr/bin' ?

Thanks,
