Looks like that worked, after deleting /usr/local/bin/python it now
defaults back to /usr/bin... yay! Thanks.

I just compiled python 2.4.2 to test out freeze (works nicely btw), and

very long text file, and it looks like it only put things in
/usr/local/bin and /usr/local/lib so I moved those somewhere else.
The wierd thing is that running "python" now defaults to /usr/local/lib
rather than /usr/bin like it used to. I reinstalled the deb packages of
python 2.3 and python 2.4 and no use. I copied /usr/bin/python to
/usr/local/bin and it works, I'm just wondering if everything has been
remove. How can I check this?
if you've
1. erased all the files installed
2. run rehash
it shouldn't be happening.
item 2 causes your shell to reindex the executable files in it's $PATH
if your shell is bash you ran rehash by typing '#' all by itself.
you can check by running 'which python'
