Ver 2.3 install over 2.2?

I wouldn't do that.  Some files may have disappeared between 2.2 and 2.3, in
which case they would still be left in the python22 tree waiting to pounce
upon some unsuspecting program.  You're really going to be better off
installing 2.3 alongside 2.2 then reinstalling packages with the new
version.  Once you're satisfied that 2.3 is working for you, go ahead and
uninstall 2.2.
