I solved the problem differently. at the console, I did:

rm /usr/bin/python
ln -s /usr/local/bin/python2.4 /usr/bin/python
rm /usr/bin/pythonw
ln -s /usr/local/bin/pythonw2.4 /usr/bin/pythonw
exit
That is a horrible idea! Do not do that. Ever.
Hey Bob,
Pardon my ignorance, but I don't understand what your reply is
referring to, and would love to understand the thinking behind it
What in the email you replied to do you think is a horrible idea? the
symlink stuff? su to root? using the console? solving the problem
differently?
Why do you think it's a horrible idea? What bad things do you
expect to happen?
