Thank you also. inadvertently I think you have given me the key to another problem that has been bugging me for a couple of weeks to do with paths and library's a python app accesses. ['', '/home/dave/my_files/my_gg/gg1.4/configs', '/home/dave/my_files/my_gg/gg1.4/logs', '/home/dave/my_files/my_gg/gg1.4/get_data', '/home/dave/my_files/my_gg/gg1.4/gg_utils', '/home/dave/my_files/my_gg/gg1.4/ipc', '/home/dave/my_files/my_gg/gg1.4/process_data', '/home/dave/my_files/my_gg/gg1.4/common_utils', '/home/dave/test2', '/usr/lib/python24.zip', '/usr/lib/python2.4', '/usr/lib/python2.4/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib/python2.4/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload', '/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/HTMLgen', '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Numeric', '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/PIL', '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/cairo', '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gst-0.10', '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0'] One question, where is the rest of PYTHONPATH defined, my section in .bashrc is only the first part, where do you get to define the /usr/lib part ?
