Thanks, I did almost the same yesterday and now everything works fine.

You should be allowed to remove anything in /usr/local without fear to kill your operation system. In case you miss python2.5 afterwards, you should be able to just install it with apt-get install python2.5 at any time - it would go to /usr/lib + /usr/bin + ... NOT /usr/local.
It is unlikely that you ever installed python by hand into anything else than /usr/local -- so there should be not lasting conflict.
Before deleting anything you could also check your environment variables: PYTHONPATH should not exist. PYTHONHOME neither PATH should not contain /usr/local
Then, "which python" should not point to /usr/local anymore and you should be all fine (still having "garbage" in /usr.local)
-S.

There are two executable files
/usr/local/bin/python
and
/usr/bin/python this is a link to python2.6
I believe that the first one is source compiled version. So, how can I get rid of it?

I might have some "hand complied" python. Once I compiled Biopython long ago.
The problem is I do not know how to clean up all the python version that I have. I tried the reinstall option. It does not work. I cannot remove the python. It will wipe out my operating system.
Any suggestion?

The origin of this problem is the fact that Python supports (at
least)
2 types of Unicode: 2 bytes and/or 4 bytes per character.
Additionally, for some incomprehensible reason the Python source code (as downloaded from python.org) defaults to 2ByteUnicode whereas all (major) Linux distributions default to 4ByteUnicode.....
( check >>> sys.maxunicode to see what you have; I get 1114111, i.e >65535 , so I have 4 byte (on Debian) )
So, most likely you have some "hand compiled" Python somewhere ....
