Eh.. I guess it wasn't, or rather, it was in the Python 2.6 ARC case:
2.3 Exported Interfaces
Interface Classification Comments
----------------------------- -------------- ----------------------
/usr/bin/python Volatile Convenience symlink
that points to the
most recent version of
Python 2.x
And also:
/usr/bin/python is a convenience symlink to the newest commonly
usable version of Python.
Python scripts delivered to Solaris must call the required
version explicitly, not the /usr/bin/python convenience symlink,
e.g.:
#!/usr/bin/python2.6
So, /usr/bin/python pointing to 2.4 was really a bug, but since 2.6
wasn't on the LiveCD, it didn't make sense to change it earlier.
