Just build python 2.3.4 (needed for Zope and Plone). Trying to learn more about use the data in sys.path from importing. When I run Python at the command prompt, import sys and print sys.path I get stuff that makes no sense. For example, /usr/local/lib/python23.zip.
Such a file does not even live on my debian machine, I would like to remove it from the sys.path string but I do not understand how it is getting there in the first place. Can anyone tell me how sys.path is initialized other than PYTHONPATH (which I have as /usr/local)? I have no .pth files and site-packages is empty at this point. Thanks much in advance.
