Thanks, but none of those suggestions seem to work. I'm not going to worry about this since I've got too many other things to do, (plus I'm in China and so to read a google group I have to use a proxy/tunnel), but for the record here's some more info...
I think I'm using the system python... RobsMac-2 Django-1.1.1 $ which python /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/python --prefix is having no effect, but I'm not sure what to set it to given the OS X directories... RobsMac-2 Django-1.1.1 $ sudo python setup.py install --prefix=/ Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6 running install ... Removing /Users/rob/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/Django-1.1.1- py2.6.egg-info Writing /Users/rob/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/Django-1.1.1- py2.6.egg-info So it put in my home dir. Same with --prefix=/Library/Python/2.6. Using --install-base does produce this error... RobsMac-2 Django-1.1.1 $ sudo python setup.py install --install-base=/ Library/Python/2.6 running install error: install-base or install-platbase supplied, but installation scheme is incomplete PYTHONPATH is nothing.
