Sorry. I wasn't clear.  Of course I understand that each version of
python needs its own additional packages, and I was expecting to
re-install them.  But I don't want to install system-wide --  I'd like
to have my own, user-specific, site-packages.  On previous versions of
python, I've  installed into
~/Library/Python/$py_version_short/site-packages under my home
directory.

In my recollection, this has worked in the past for python installed
from python.org, but perhaps that recollection is wrong.  At any rate,
it doesn't  work with python 2.7.

Best wishes,

Nicholas
