On my system the symlinks, as per alternatives, looks like this:
/usr/bin/python -> /etc/alternatives/python -> /usr/bin/python2.4
This looks like an upstream bug.
They primarily try the os.readlink (line 142) path name instead of executing
default Python and looking at sys.version.
They should rely solely on sys.version, it's 100% reliable, there's no need to
check the path name at all.
Anyways, this forces users to denounce the alternatives system, which is not
good.
