Install the Python 2.7 (Linux) __linux in a compiled fashion

My machine's default Python version is 2.6.6, and now I want to install a 2.7 version.

Download address of package: https://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.10/Python-2.7.10.tgz

Ensure that it is installed first: zlib zlib-devel OpenSSL openssl-devel readline readline-devel

First, the specific installation:

Tar zxf python-2.7.10.tgz

CD Python-2.7.10

./configure--prefix=/usr/local/python

Make && make install

Second, start python2.7:

[Root@pc ~]#/usr/local/python/bin/python2.7

Third: Establish soft connection

Ln-s/usr/local/python/bin/python2.7/bin/python2.7

[Root@pc download]# python2.7
Python 2.7.10 (Default, Dec 31 2015, 02:13:11)
[GCC 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-16)] on linux2
Type ' help ', ' copyright ', ' credits ' or ' license ' for the more information.

Four: Set python2.7 as the default version

[Root@pc bin]# mv/usr/bin/python/usr/bin/python2.6.6
[Root@pc bin]# ln-s/usr/local/python/bin/python2.7/usr/bin/python

[Root@pc bin]# python
