I've seen a couple of posts now about difficulty using the system python in Leopard. I wonder if anyone else has used the solution offered by Phillip Eby here: http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall#creating-a-virtual-python Basically, this wraps your system (or any) python and allows you to install libraries into that wrapped python - including ones that would override the system defaults. I suppose this strategy could even be "wrapped up" in a distributed application bundle of some sort. I've used this solution for my own development purposes, and it's worked fine. I'd be curious to hear other's experiences or ideas.
Installing your own stuff as eggs should also do the trick. Possibly after upgrading setuptools (easy_install -U setuptools).
BTW. This behaviour is curtesy of setuptools, it does some nasty stuff in the .pth file it installs.
