Files in /usr/bin are system managed. A user should not change them. If you do, you have broken your system. The error message you report is *not* a bug but a safety mechanism to guard against users who have broken their systems. If you desire to use a different version yourself, please set such a symlink in /usr/local/bin/python. You can not expect the system packaged software to work with a modified /usr/bin/python.
