Does this .bashrc hack for for you maybe? :-)
## Toogle between python versions
python-toggle(){
local RED="\e[0;31m"
local GREEN="\e[0;32m"
local RESET="\e[0;0m"
test -z "$1" || v="$1"
local bins=('python' 'python-config' 'pip')
cd /usr/bin
for bin in ${bins[@]}; do
test -h $bin || {
echo -e "${RED}ERROR:${RESET} cannot find $PWD/$bin"
return 1
}
done
echo -e ">> ${RED}Disabling $(python -V 2>&1)${RESET}\007"
if [[ python -ef python3 || "python${v}" == "python3" ]]; then
rm python python-config pip
ln -s python2 python
ln -s python2-config python-config
ln -s pip2 pip
elif [[ python -ef python2 || "python${v}" == "python2" ]]; then
rm python python-config pip
ln -s python3 python
ln -s python3-config python-config

else

cd - > /dev/null
return 2
