On Red Hat 9, Python is installed by default and it's version is 2.2.2
If I want to upgrade Python to 2.3.4(newer version), how could I do?
If I compile source code of Python, how do I uninstall the old version?
I tried rpm packages but failed with dependence.
Could everyone give me a advise? 3 1355

I didn't try the rpm's. Just get the source tarball, configure, make,
and make install.

Although one might argue that make altinstall is a safer approach ;)
(Any scripts using "/usr/bin/env python" would then continue to use Python 2.2)
Cheers,

You don't want to uninstall the old version. Red Hat installs packages
that are needed for its configuration scripts.
