The major Red Hat based Linux distros are still shipping with Python 2.4. As a result, almost all hosting providers are running obsolete versions of Python.The big problem seems to be that "cPanel" and "yum" still use older versions of Python, and those programs are more important to distro builders than Python itself. Is anybody trying to do something about this? John Nagle
I am not sure of Fedora, CentOs 5.x ships with Python 2.5 . The version of python depends a lot on everything else that is packed into the system and uses python. e.g. GUI based tools, system scripts etc.
There is however never been an issue to locate different version of python in your system as you deem fit without problems. So I dont understand why your concern.
