How did you install 2.6? The binary MPL installer is probably looking 
for the python.org 2.6, which would be in /Library/Frameworks/....

If you are using a macports python, for instance, the installer wouldn't 
find it.

"which python" at the command line might help clear this up.

or:

python -c "import sys; print sys.path"

That will spew out a bunch of dirs, and where there are should tell you 
where your python is installed.
