Andrew,

Took your suggestions - moved the libs back under a python1.5 subdir,
and set PYTHONHOME.  Here is my results (this the output of my csh
script running the relocated python runtime ):

PYTHONPATH=/usr/mdi_dev//python/lib/irix32/python1.5
PYTHONHOME=/usr/mdi_dev//python/lib/irix32
python=/usr/mdi_dev//python/bin/irix32/python

Could not find platform dependent libraries <exec_prefix>
Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to <prefix>[:<exec_prefix>]

I have a PYTHONSTARTUP that simply imports os,sys,string.

It looks like python is loading all of its modules from the correct
place (*/usr/mdi_dev/python"), as opposed to where the interpreter was
told during buildtime ("/usr/local").

I am wondering - on this second machine that is causing the warnings to
be printed out, there is no python installation in /usr/local.  Does
python check its configured buildtime prefix/exec_prefix locations, EVEN
though PYTHONHOME and PYTHONPATH are setup so python is instructed to
get its runtimes from the new location?  That would be a bummer, because
we are
distributing binaries to our customers, and need to put the distro in
any arbitrary customer-specified location, and having these warnings pop
up would probably cause a lot of confusion.

Thanks

Rob
