where are you downloading it from, and in what form?

If it's a .mpgk, or .pkg, then it was built for a particular python 
install, probably MacPython, not Apple's.

So you need to either find a package built for Leopard's python, or 
download a tarball and install it with distutils (python setup.py install).

if there are eggs available, they MIGHT work, too.

That hack should work for any other package built for MacPython2.5 -- 
you'll have to give us more details as to exactly what you did, and what 
happened.
