Using MacPorts Python packages in different Python

[Jeremy Lavergne]

I'd try creating your python PortGroup (copy the existing one, give it a new number). Then, you can set the paths for everything that the Enthought Python uses and MacPorts will honor that when a package is set to that PortGroup's number.

However as Ryan showed, if there are bugs mixing them together, you'll be more or less on your own. Or if you can find an uber pythonista to help you out.
