python-restkit-native installs the modules into /whatever/your/tmp/dir/is/sysroot/usr/lib/python/site-packages/restkit. The host Python doesn't know to look in there, and if the module was built from C sources the chances are the ABI doesn't match anyway. You need to run the nativepython in the sysroot which 1) matches API 2) knows to look in the sysroot for modules. This is why 1) you need to either inherit pythonnative (in a recipe) or 2) run the right Python explicitly. *Any* python code using /usr/bin/python explicitly is broken, the best practise everywhere (not just in Yocto) is to use #! /usr/bin/env python as you can't assume the one in /usr/bin is the right one.
