It sounds like you are trying to install it using setup.py, which will try to install it in your standard library directory. However, Django's setup.py is exceedingly trivial and isn't really needed for most uses. All you need to do is make sure that the top of the source tree is on your Python path. So you can put it anywhere you like and then set up your PYTHONPATH environment variable to point there so that "import django" works.
