t does not replace python 2.6, it installs in a separate slot. Python 2.6 remains the default as many modules don't yet work with 3. This is given in the elog message, but of course you have to be brave/foolish enough to emerge it to see that. So yes, it is safe to allow python 3.1 to install. -- Neil Bothwick I thought I saw the light at the end of the tunnel... but it was just some sod with a torch bringing me more work!
