That doesn't really work, does it? 2.2c1 would overwrite
/usr/lib/python2.2, which might be there from a prior Python 2.2
installation. If it is just python2.2, that scheme would work.

Ideally, there should be an easy way to either install your RPMs
alongside with the system RPMs, or to replace the system RPMs. In the
latter case, 'rpm -U' could be used to upgrade from the system Python
to your binaries. This might be tricky, as the names and structures of
the Python RPMs vary widely.
