Hi Yanming, it looks like ccp4mg looks for python in a specific path within the ccp4mg. Edit the script ccp4mg (you find out where it is with 'which ccp4mg'). Look at the very end of that file for where python is called (probably with some arguments). Make sure it says only 'python', not anything like '/usr/local/ccp4/ccp4mg-0.12.1/bin/..//pythondist/bin/python'. Then ccp4mg will use the python of your system. This works for me and ccp4mg does not need its own python installation.
Maybe the ccp4mg-developers may want to comment on whether this is a bad idea and may have a negative influence on ccp4mg's performance?
