So the directories you are seeing are what would be used with standard prefix settings.
If you mean "obviously because I used a setting to configure the prefixes for loading from a specific directory" then perhaps you are suffering from having set your Windows PATH. If you *don't* set your Windows PATH do you see it using the "2.2.3" variants? Did you run "make install"? Just a couple of random thoughts ... are you even sure that running the "python" command does run your new 2.2.3 binary? regards Steve -- Steve Holden +44 150 684 7255 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC/Ltd http://www.holdenweb.com Skype: holdenweb http://del.icio.us/steve.holden Blog of Note: http://holdenweb.blogspot.com
