Hello Vahid, i'm sorry but this mailing list is not the right place where to ask such question, I suggest get in touch with http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list for support.

you're using the system 'python' here, not the new installed, which probably has landed in /usr/local (or where you installed it).

Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Dec 27 2010, 00:02:40) [GCC 4.4.5] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. how can i change the default to python 3.2.2?

from a Debian Developer perspective, I'd suggest you not to switch the Debian default interpreter to python3.2 since it will make several system tools/debian packages to fail. If you need 3.2 explicitly, state it in the shebang or call the script with py3.2 explicitly.
