Old Distro

I realized too late that I should have moved the /usr/bin/python binary before building out with the command you gave me. I used your command but still couldn't import ldap...I assume because I didn't uninstall the old python 2.3.5 (which I don't know how to do, since it's not built from ports, so I'll just move the binary :) Anyway, can you give me a command which undoes everything you just had me do, and I'll try again?
TIA,

I think you may want to do a "make clean all deinstall install
PYTHON_VERSION=python2.3" in ports/net/py-ldap2?  I think that would be
enough to force a python2.3 dependency for python-ldap2.
