Did you do that because you want to mess around with 2.6? You might want to try building it as a more OS-X is way, I think that required a flag something like "enable-frameworks" or something like that. > which gave > me a nice clean interpreter whose default sys.path is completely > separate from any of the Apple stuff. The python.org binary is completely independent too. In fact, you don't need --prefix=$HOME to make it independent either, I think it goes in usr/local be default, or into Library/Frameworks if you enable the Framework build. > Numpy and matplotlib build > against it with no trouble.
