Careful. If you're using a distro that still uses 2.3 by default, I'd
play it safe and leave that symlink alone. Lots of distros use python
for various administrative tools. You could have problems like:
some administrative gadget provided by your distro uses some optional
package which you have installed for 2.3 but not 2.4, so you've just
broken said gadget.

In other words: don't do stuff like that unless you really know what
you're doing :)

(why distros still use 2.3 by default is beyond me... 2.4 is two years
old already and 2.5 just came out.)
