/opt/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/django/bin to /opt/local/bin and save
the hassle of an increasingly long PATH?  I have added apache's bin to mine,
and a few others.  I am not sure how I feel about the symblinking, but
wanted to know if it wold work.

I think there is a problem with Python or the link between Python and
Django. I am reading this:
http://solutions.treypiepmeier.com/2008/02/26/installing-django-on-os-x-leopard/and
hope it will help me with Django on Snow Leopard using Mac Ports as
well.. I am not certain if I want to do this:

Find out if you’re using the right version of Python:

which python

Jaspers-MacBook-Pro:usr jasper$ which python
/opt/local/bin/python


If you don’t see:

/usr/bin/python

then delete whatever version you have sitting in your path, such as one in
/usr/local/:

sudo rm /usr/local/bin/python

And whether it will do any good though..
