Installing Python 2.4 on RedHat

[pierreth]

Hello,

I made some programming wit Python 2.4 but Red Hat comes with version
2.3 as default. So I would like to install the last version of Python
on a production server but I am a bit afraid. As I know, if I install
the new version, the default version will still be 2.3, right? I would
like to know if someone as experienced problems by installing a newer
version of Python in a server environment? I think that things are
going to be fine but I want to check before.

You removed /usr/bin/python! This is a really bad idea. You should
never modify /usr/bin because the system is expecting it. This is why
the new installation is in /usr/local/bin.

Modify your /usr/local instead are change your .login file instead. It
is much safer.
