Did you do a fresh install on the AMD? If so, did you install the x86_64 or i386 version? Most distros maintain a separate /usr/lib and /usr/lib64 for compatibility and I've had issues with building Python packages on these platforms. In my case I managed to work around it by simply getting rid of the 32-bit /usr/lib and renaming the /usr/lib64 to /usr/lib. The problem seems to be due to the fact that certain Python modules get stuck in lib64 and some in lib and Python gets confused. Switching to pure 64 bit in this way will mean you can't run certain binary-only packages (Flash for one) but won't hurt much else. As an aside, unless you've got over 4GB of RAM, you'll find that 64bit mode will make your machine considerably slower (and less compatible) so I'd highly recommend just sticking with the i386 version unless you've got lots of RAM.
