title: How to revert back to original Ubuntu Python installation?
body: <p>I downloaded and built a new installation of Python on my Ubuntu 12.04 system without realizing that Ubuntu already comes with it installed.</p>
  
  <p>Whatever I did messed things up as one of the modules I need is no longer working. Is there a way to revert back to the original install?</p>
  
  <p>Thx!</p>
