Hey folks,

I've installed Python on OS X Lion on two computers - one with Lion
preinstalled and one upgraded from Snow Leopard. I used both Python.org and
Activestate installers.

In all cases (I'm pretty sure) the installation required elevation and the
installed Python was 'owned' by root - meaning any changes (e.g.
installation into site-packages) must be sudo'd.

This is a change from previous versions of OS X. Is this known, and is it an
issue? (I chown'd everything back to me to get round it.)

All the best,

Michael
