You inquired about whether I had changed the path for 2.1, which I had not. So I tested 2.1 with the original path (I couldn't find anywhere that I had tested 2.1 with respect to this problem). 2.1 behaved the same as 2.2 when it had the original path. Then I shortened the path for 2.1 just as I had for 2.2. Then I re-tested 2.1 and with the shortened path it behaves the same as 2.2 when its path was shortened. The testing for both 2.1 and 2.2 involved running Reconfigure and also running each version's Python script in a terminal.
I hope that is more clear. Jerry
