Ned Deily <n...@acm.org> added the comment: I agree the patch is not a good solution but it is relatively safe. I suppose the current buggy behavior of Update Shell Profile *does* limit the growth to the number of Python versions you've installed. However the patch does allow users not comfortable with shell scripts to move between versions. On the other hand, they can always use the various IDLEs. This whole area of PATH manipulation and symlinks for OS X could use a good re- thinking; a lot of cruft has accumulated over the years and it gets worse with 4-way builds.
