Building from the official source defaults to /usr/local as the prefix directory, which doesn't interfere with the platform Python in /usr. Did you configure with --prefix=/usr? Also, it defaults to using _sysconfigdata for build_time_vars -- not _sysconfigdata_m in the platform subdirectory. That's a Debian patch, which you can see in the following diff: http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/python3.3/python3.3_3.3.2-5.diff.gz The "command-not-found" script uses 3.x on Ubuntu/Mint: http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/command-not-found It's 2.x on Debian, but thankfully it isn't part of the default install. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
