neovim: Use system Python if possible

[sjackman]

As a workaround, try brew unlink python

[sjackman]

neovim should use the system Python when it's available. I'll have to look into why it's installing the Linuxbrew python.

[sjackman]

It should use your system Python so long as it is version 2.7.x. Please report

/usr/bin/python --version

[tkossak]

Somehow it didn't use my Python 2.7.6:

$ /usr/bin/python --version
Python 2.7.6
$ /home/kossak/.linuxbrew/bin/python --version
Python 2.7.11

I'll see if I can reproduce that issue on my system. Does the workaround work for you?
brew unlink python

[tkossak]

Thank you. I added some of my system info to first post.

Does the workaround work for you?
brew unlink python

Yes it works (even with linuxbrew path on the begining of $PATH)
