	I'd be concerned that those 3/3.3 entries are showing up in a 2.7
installation directory!

	Other than that, I'd see if some of those of softlinks (or even
hardlinks) to another... That is: /usr/bin/python maybe links to your
python3.3, and your python3 also links to the python3.3 -- meaning you
really only have one Python in the 3.x branch (you didn't check for 2.x)
