Re: distutils linux script installation broken?

[Cory Davis]

Thanks for the help Chris. I tried the -E option, and also installing as 
root with no change - the scripts in the bin directory still end up with 
#!None on the first line.  Next step is to reinstall Python 2.4, and if 
that doesn't work I'll just stick with 2.3.4.

Cheers,
Cory.

I've got python 2.3.3, 2.4, and 1.5.2 (which came preinstalled) on my
linux box. It's redhat 7.2 (I know... I would upgrade, but it would
void my service contract, so I just install things in /usr/local). You
can check if PYTHONHOME or PYTHONPATH are set, which may somehow be
interfering. I don't have those variables set. If they are set, you
could try running:
python -E setup.py install
The -E option should make python ignore those environment variables.
Good luck, I hope this helps.
