No. /sw/bin/python is a symlink to /sw/bin/python2.5, which is an executable. The /sw directory is where, on Darwin, the fink project installs software (debian-style) by default.

Is /sw/bin/python a symlink to /usr/bin/python?

Hello,

Because FIND_PACKAGE(PythonInterp) wasn't behaving exactly the way I
wanted it to, I was playing around with the following (at the very
beginning of my CMakeLists.txt file):

 FIND_PROGRAM(PYTHON_EXECUTABLE python)
 MESSAGE("PYTHON_EXECUTABLE is " ${PYTHON_EXECUTABLE})
 FIND_PROGRAM(SWIG_EXECUTABLE swig)
 MESSAGE("SWIG_EXECUTABLE is " ${SWIG_EXECUTABLE})

On my system, the following executables exist:

 /sw/bin/python
 /usr/bin/python
 /sw/bin/swig
 /usr/bin/swig

and /sw/bin comes first in my PATH environment variable.  I would
expect to get the same paths to both python and swig, but I don't.
Instead, I get the output

 PYTHON_EXECUTABLE is /usr/bin/python
 SWIG_EXECUTABLE is /sw/bin/swig

I make sure to delete my cache file before running cmake, so I don't
think it is a caching issue.  Why else might it behave like this?

Thanks
