If you absolutely have to have 2.6 for some user application, I would compile and install it to run somewhere else, like /usr/local/python26 or /opt/mystuff/python26
The IUS Community repository has a newer version of python, installable via yum which is located in /opt and doesn't conflict with the default python. They've done a pretty good job of packaging this in my opinion, and it's basically the best way to get a newer python without horribly breaking things.
Thank you. This will probably suit my needs. Susan
