更新python千万不要把老版本的删除！新老版本是可以共存的，很多基本的命令、
软件包都要依赖预装的老版本python的，比如yum。
一、升级到2.7.3
1. 升级安装
首先下载源tar包
可利用linux自带下载工具wget下载，如下所示：
# wget
下载完成后到下载目录下，解压
# tar -zxvf Python-2.7.3.tar.gz
进入解压缩后的文件夹
cd Python-2.7.3
在编译前先在/usr/local建一个文件夹python2.7.3（作为python的安装路径，以免覆盖老的版本）
# mkdir /usr/local/python2.7.3
在解压缩后的目录下编译安装
# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/python2.7.3
# make
# make install
此时没有覆盖老版本，再将原来/usr/bin/python链接改为别的名字
# mv /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python_old
再建立新版本python的链接
# ln -s /usr/local/python2.7.3/bin/python2.7 /usr/bin/python
这个时候输入
# python
就会显示出python的新版本信息

2.运行程序时出现错误:
File "~/PythonInstall/lib/python2.7/multiprocessing/process.py", line 129, in start
from .forking import Popen
File "~/PythonInstall/lib/python2.7/multiprocessing/forking.py", line 58, in
from pickle import Pickler
File "~/PythonInstall/lib/python2.7/pickle.py", line 1266, in
import binascii as _binascii
ImportError: No module named binascii
是因为升级python版本不正常导致的。
回到源文件目录:

升级安装sqlite3

# make clean
# make all
# make install
到此，程序就能正常运行了；
二、升级到3.3.0
更新python：
第1步：更新gcc，
因为gcc版本太老会导致新版本python包编译不成功 代码如下:
#yum -y install gcc
系统会自动下载并安装或更新，等它自己结束
第2步：下载Python-3.3.0软件包
代码如下:
# wget --no-check-certificate
注意：按照上述命令下载的软件包会存放在你当前的工作目录下，
wget命令是一个从网络上自动下载文件的自由工具，具体用法，
请参考这篇文章：
说明：命令中的数字就是版本号，你也可以把3.3.0换成你需要的版本.
第3步：解压已下载的二进制包并编译安装
代码如下:
#tar -jxvf Python-3.3.0.tar.bz2
#cd Python-3.3.0
#./configure
#make all
#make install
#make clean
#make distclean
# /usr/local/bin/python3 –V
编译安装完毕以后，可以输入上面一行命令，查看版本
第4步：建立软连接指向到当前系统默认python命令的bin目录，让系统使用新版本python
#mv /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python2.4 //当前python的版本为2.4所以是python2.4
#ln -s /usr/local/bin/python3.3 /usr/bin/python
输入
#python -V，
即可查看当前默认python版本
默认的python成功指向3.3.0以后，yum不能正常使用，需要修改yum的配置文件
第5步：修改yum配置文件
#vi /usr/bin/yum
把文件头部的
#!/usr/bin/python 改成 #!/usr/bin/python2.4 //改为之前的老版本号
保存退出，yum即可正常使用。
如若有其他命令、软件不能正常使用，仿照yum配置文件的修改方法，修改其配置文件即可。
至此，更新完毕。
