title: Is the symbolic link python important?
body: <p>I am on a Raspberry Pi, and by default the following symbolic links were created in /usr/bin:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>/usr/bin/python -&gt; /usr/bin/python2.7</p>
  <p>/usr/bin/python2 -&gt; /usr/bin/python2.7</p>
  <p>/usr/bin/python3 -&gt; /usr/bin/python3.2</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>Most of my work is done in Python 3, so I decided to recreate <code>/usr/bin/python</code> to point to <code>/usr/bin/python3.2</code> instead. Does this have any negative consequences when I install packages or run pip? Are there utilities that depend on the alias <code>python</code> in the search path and end up doing the wrong things?</p>
