You're running it from a local directory, ./bin/python. Thus, its finding its "center" (where the executable is installed), and from there building a search path. Its center -- PYTHONHOME -- is /home/nima/py; from there, it adds /home/nima/py/lib-dynload among other search paths. So: zlib.so needs to be in /home/nima/py/lib-dynload. If its not, then it won't be able to decompress python26.zip into memory.

I think :) --S
