I've installed a couple of "foreign" python packages atop my fink
python.  I had to change a couple of occurrences of "/usr/local"
to "/sw/fink" in the Mac OS X branch of the giant if/elif logic in
setup.py.

Being an avid lurker on comp.lang.python, I'll bet that a well
posed question there would yield a goldmine's worth of replies.
