When you set your path, did you ensure that there's a symlink to python-2.7.2 named 'python'?
ln -sfv ~/Python-2.7.2/bin/python-2.7 ~/Python-2.7.2/bin python --version Should then print 2.7.2 If not, that could also be the problem. I'm shooting in the dark, and also kind of confused since we check the version of python at the top of the SConstruct in the base directory.
