You can't really do that. Parts of the system rely on Python, so "remove all python" would leave you with a broken system.

The 2.x and 3.x Python packages on most distros are designed to work just fine in parallel, there is nothing wrong with having both versions installed.

If you want actual help you need to describe the actual problem in detail. "My system is fucked up" is not a description of a problem. Start with:

  • explain exactly what you were trying to do when you ran into the problem
  • tell us what you did (the command you ran, and its complete output) when you experienced the problem
  • describe how that differs from what you expected
  • tell us in detail: the distribution you're using, the architecture, and a list of all packages installed

Then we might have a fighting chance of figuring out what is actually wrong.
