Dear Fink developer:
Fink-git now has a validator check to make sure that PYTHONPATH is not
set in RuntimeVars as this will almost assuredly break pythonmods that
use a different python and accidentally pick up a mod due to PYTHONPATH
being set. The following pythonmods in the 10.4 and 10.7
Hanspeter,
I whole heartedly agree. I have nothing to do with the -systempython variants.
I agree that it is a bad idea to set PYTHONPATH!
Additionally, putting me down as the maintainer for this type of thing isn't
the best either. Please set yourself as maintainer when forking packages
What about a wrapper that sits next to FINKROOT/bin/python?.? that sets the
PYTHONPATH and then passes the buck to /usr/bin/python?

I would argue very strongly that fink should NEVER be modifying the behavior of
anything that is run like that.
If I set my path to have fink first and fink has a FINKROOT/bin/python bin that
is systempython, then okay. I would consider it okay to then me modifying the
behavior of either of
Sounds simple and effective. So something like /sw/bin/systempython2.6? But
it won't work for people who run things like /usr/bin/python myscript.py

I think I'm the leading force on the systempython variants. Sorry, I just
copied the .info files, so I might not have changed the maintainer. I'm happy
to replace it with me.
I'm not particular what the mechanism is, as long as /usr/bin/python can easily
find the libs in

No, it won't, but there really isn't any way to do that which
