On 10.5 with a virgin Python 2.5 installation there is no:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/
site-packages
If you have it then something has wrongly created it and you probably
should delete the whole directory in case it causes problems.
The Python 2.3 installation on 10.5 still has the site-packages in the
long path location, but as I said, it is a symlink to /Library/Python/
2.3/...
BTW, with all the problems you are having, you might want to look at
mod_wsgi 2.0 instead and use its support for easily pointing at Python
virtual environments created using virtualenv. This way you could have
different virtual environments for different versions of Django and
how applications using the different versions in different daemon
processes using mod_wsgi daemon mode. :-)
