Thank you.

which python
/usr/bin/python

port contents python26
...
   /opt/local/bin/idle2.6
   /opt/local/bin/pydoc2.6
   /opt/local/bin/python2.6
   /opt/local/bin/python2.6-config
   /opt/local/bin/pythonw2.6
   /opt/local/bin/smtpd2.6.py
   /opt/local/etc/select/python/python26
   /opt/local/lib/libpython2.6.dylib
...

What is the macports way to get python26 into my paths?

Does PortGroup take care us using the correct python and setting  
common vars for building python apps like the prefix dir?
