Re: OS X install, not in home directory?

Are you running setup using the system python, or a separate one tied
to your account (such as in a virtual env)? If the latter then try specifying
the full path to the system python to run setup. Also, if you have the
PYTHONPATH environment variable set, you might try unsetting it while
running the install. (You can do this in a subshell and not affect other
operations.)
