Thats exactly my thoughts.
Can you please tell me HOW TO GET RID OF ALL PYTHON SETUPS except 2.6 that is needed for system core and then just install 3.3.2?

also why cant i install 3.3.2  using yum. if i could instead of building from source then i wouldn't have this installed mess but i could simply
yum remove python*
