Why?  I don't understand this position.  Debian has no simple automated
mechanism to remove older packages during an upgrade, so pretty much any
system updated from older releases will have python2.3 still installed
unless an administrator has specifically gone out of his way to remove
it.

For the record, I also have python2.1 and python2.2 installed.

Disk space is cheap, and I feel no need to hunt these things down and
remove them.
