No I installed 2.7 from a repo that had it. So now I guess I have to find 2.7 repos for all the packages we use.
no repo intended for CentOS6/RHEL6 should have replaced /usr/bin/python with a newer version. there's no way to do that without breaking ALL the python software included with centos6
putting it somewhere like /opt/python27 or /usr/local/python27, sure.
It did not install to /usr/bin/python - I never said that it did. It installed to /usr/local/bin/python2.7. I then linked /usr/local/bin/python2.7 to /usr/bin/python so 2.7 would be picked up as the default.
