I'am using CentOS v6.4 on my VPS and hence 'yum' install manager and i just tried:
Code: root@nikos [~]# which python /usr/bin/python root@nikos [~]# which python3 /root/.local/lib/python2.7/bin/python3 root@nikos [~]# which python3.3 /root/.local/lib/python2.7/bin/python3.3 root@nikos [~]# Why so many pythons in my system. Now in the case of my Python3 installation, it looks like i have two parallel installations of Python3, but i don't. One is almost certainly a symlink to the other and not an actual installation. I'm thinking of: yum remove python yum remove python3 yum remove python3.3 and yum install python3.3.2 from scratch. I'm sceptic about uninstalling python 2.x though. Seems to me as a bad idea because most of the core system utilities are written in Python 2.6+. Yum, for example, is a collection of Python 2.6 programs. If i actually do "yum remove python" i will see most of my core system get listed in the uninstall dependency list -- which is a Bad Thing. But then again i dont like the idea of having too many Python into my system. What is you opinion? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
