I have a need to run the latest GIT of the aws-cli, so while the port is there, I need to be able to compile and install the nightly code updates for testing.

So I am building aws-cli from the GIT repository.


Thanks.

OK.

So when you say build from source, do you mean using MacPorts port for this, or are you building directly yourself (and if the later, any reason why you are not using the port ?)

The /usr/bin/python installs the executable into /usr/local/bin. I'd be fine if the Macports installed it in /opt/local/bin -- this makes me believe there is a config directive I'm missing somewhere.

When you say " vs /usr/bin/python that does the right thing and places the commands in proper places “  where exactly are you referring to ? Where exactly do you want the macports provided python to install things to ?

I'm new to Python and I'm trying to figure out why, for example, when I install aws-cli (from source) using Macports, it doesn't install properly vs /usr/bin/python that does the right thing and places the commands in proper places.   When I run "/opt/local/bin/python setup.py install" it ends up buried in directories under the Macports directory structure, which isn't usable.   Maybe I am missing some ENV variables?
