To answer your question.
Create a brand new virtualenv, enter said virtualenv, make python
point at whatever you want. Use said virtualenv for one thing / one
service / strongly coupled things only.
Create as many virtualenvs as needed.
Above is safe to do, and should not conflict with system python /
system packages / OS.
