For the people annoyed at the idea to move to 16.04:

There are some alternative ways to get an updated Python version,
without relying on the one shipped by default in Ubuntu:

Pythonz: https://github.com/saghul/pythonz (disclaimer: I submitted some patches and integrated pythonz into my own project: https://github.com/berdario/pew )
Pyenv: https://github.com/yyuu/pyenv
The deadsnakes ppa: https://launchpad.net/~fkrull/+archive/ubuntu/deadsnakes-python2.7?field.series_filter=precise (this is not the main PPA, but it's the one created specially for this purpose)
