Isn't root's $HOME in /private/var/root on MacOS X? -- Well, at
least here it is.

As Matt wrote, I have my bash_profile source bashrc.

But, as I said in another post, you can do this entirely within
python

Create a .pth file eg.
/usr/local/lib/pyton2.6/site-packages/altinstall.pth that reads like
so:

import os, site; site.addsitedir(os.path.expanduser('~/lib/python')); site.addsitedir('/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages')

Then you don't have to set PYTHONPATH at all.
