The path to my python directory is /home/amit/packages/Python-2.5.2 . If I temporarily make the atlas library unavailable (by renaming the directory to some name that is not in the path), I can perform the build. Now in the installation stage, I use python setup.py and then choose the option 2/home/amit/packages/Python-2.5.2. In the proposed sys.argv the path is shown as /home/amit/packages/python-2.5.2. Incidentally, it also creates this new directory during install. * *Thanks Robert.
