Disclaimer: This may be more of a python/shared hosting issue, but
alas I'm posting here.

Hey all,

I'm currently just trying to install some 3rd party django apps so I
can use them in my project.  I already have django up and running, I'm
hosting on Dreamhost using passenger.  I don't have my own python
installation, so I'm using dreamhost's shared.

I have built a custom app, and project, and they work perfect, however
I can't seem to install 3rd party apps (using the python setup.py
install method).

I have to use this method because I don't have acces to easy_install
for example, because the shared /usr/ directory is off limits to me.

python setup.py install fails because it doesn't see my custom install
directory on the PYTHONPATH (obviously).  I've tried modifying the
setup.py script to append the directory to the path before running,
but still no success.

Is there any way to do this?  It seems like overkill that I would have
to have my own installation of python running just to get 3rd party
apps to work, considering I can get mine going great.

Thanks in advance!

Ryan
