Yes, I think this is happening - very frustrating!  I just wanted to
update python - Whenever I try install modules now though (e.g. sudo
aptitude install python-imaging), it doesn't install them in the new
folder  - why oh why....

I just found this site http://jaredforsyth.com/content/install-python-26-ubuntu
that explains how to have an automatic install - which I did,  but now
my python path has got my other python 2.6 installation location. (I
now have one under /usr/lib/ and another under /usr/local/lib)

I've googled and googled and have not found out how you remove it
properly (If I were to remove it, I'd just delete the whole folder)

I don't know how to set my python path to point to the new python 2.6
folder either.


All in all, I'd rather just revert back to python 2.5.... problem is
that I don't know how to do that either!!!
