Summary: installation atop 2.2 fails
Initial Comment:
Installing Python 2.2.1 atop Python 2.2 on cygwin
fails at the last stage when it tries to create a
link from /usr/bin/python.exe -> /usr/bin/python-
2.2.exe. Since the link already exists, installation
stops.

Can you report the precise sequence of commands being
executed? Normally, it should be
if test -f /usr/local/bin/python; \
then rm -f /usr/local/bin/python; \
else true; \
fi
(cd /usr/local/bin; ln python2.2 python)
If this is the ln that fails, it is not clear why the
target already exists: the rm command is supposed to
delete it.
