Hello,

I built the 1.5.1 distro on one of our irix6.4 systems ( n64-mips4
arch), using the -32 (-o32)  compiler.  This was installed in the
"normal" place - /usr/local/....  and ran fine on that machine.

Now I have moved this installation to a NFS mount, and tried running the
interpreter on another irix6.4 system with similar characterstics.  I am
setting PYTHONPATH to point to the location of new python runtime
libraries:

The libs originally where built/installed  -> /usr/local/lib/python1.5
re-installed as ${somedir}/lib/irix32, and set PYTHONPATH to
${somedir}/lib/irix32.

the interpreter itself is re-located in ${somedir}/bin/irix32/

I can run python in its new location on the old system, just fine:

    setenv PYTHONPATH ${somedir}/lib/irix32
    ${somedir}/bin/irix32/python -v

and get the normal debugging info when the modules are loaded, which
confirms they are loading out of my specified PYTHONPATH.

However, when I try running this installation on another one of our irix
systems, I get:

Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix>
Could not find platform dependent libraries <exec_prefix>
Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to <prefix>[:<exec_prefix>]
Python 1.5.1 (#3, May 21 1999, 16:24:24) [C] on irix646-32-mips2

>>>

The messages about Registry, are coming from SWIGged module linked
against the interpreter.  I looks like that is working fine in this
installation on both systems.  It would appear that the warnings on the
second system are non-fatal.

Any ideas how to "fix" or suppress them?
