python能装在mac上吗_试图在Mac上正常安装Python吗？

I have Mac OSX 10.5.8 with Xcode installed. I want to avoid MacPorts and want to just get a solid Python install foundation so I can then move on to mess with Django and other things. I want to use Buildout with my Python applications.

I have installed binary Python 2.6.4 from the official site and installed this. Following other advice I have put this in my ~/.bash_profile file:

export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH

So, when I do a which python it shows /usr/local/bin/python. And, when I do a python -V it shows Python 2.6.4 - this all seems great.

I've looked inside the /usr/local/bin/ folder and, among other things, I seem to have the correct stuff pointing to Python 2.6:

python -> ../../../Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/python

BUT, when I do an easy_install of virtualenv (that I want to use with Buildout) it seems to install it in /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/virtualenv-1.4.3-py2.5.egg

...which is Python 2.5? Also, when I setup my Buildout folder using virtualenv, in there the .Python symlink is going to:

.Python -> /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/Python

Why is this? I don't understand this. How can I get it all pointing to the correct Python 2.6?

Thank you so much for any answers, it's annoying the hell out of me. Cheers.

Firstly, there's absolutely no need to install a new version of Python to work on Django in Leopard. The stock Python 2.5 works absolutely fine, and Django is 100% compatible with that version.

Secondly, if you do want to use virtualenv with a different version of Python other than the system default, you simply need to tell it when you create the virtualenv:

virtualenv --python=/path/to/python/2.6 virtualenvname
