The Ubuntu package ships a django-admin executable. I'm not sure if it is just a symlink to django-admin.py, or if it is django-admin.py renamed. This is to achieve compliance with Debian policy, which (I believe) recommends against extensions like .py on commands. I could, however, be mis-remembering all of this stuff. John, you should remove the django installation in /usr/local if you have the Ubuntu package installed. -Forest -- Forest Bond http://www.alittletooquiet.net
