You probably want a "2>/dev/null" in there.

I also think I remember seeing a `which python` in one of these patches.
'which' is a bourne shell script that is trying to emulate a csh builtin.
It can't actually work, and ISTR one of the distros might be
trying to remove it.
In a traditional bourne shell you should use `type python`, the posix
equivalent (which any shell written in the last 30 years out to get
right) is `command -V python`.
Both type and command have to be shell builtins.
Although I suspect some shells get command -V wrong.
