From the README file:
There's an executable /usr/bin/python which is Python
1.5.2 on most older Red Hat installations; several key Red Hat
tools
require this version. Python 2.1.x may be installed as
/usr/bin/python2. The Makefile installs Python as
/usr/local/bin/python, which may or may not take precedence
over /usr/bin/python, depending on how you have set up $PATH.
