title: Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix> Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to <prefix>[:<exec_prefix>]
body: <p>I'm really new to Python and Django.... What I'm trying to do is:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>Install Python 2.7 on Mac OS 10.6.8 </p></li>
  <li><p>Install pip Install Django </p></li>
  <li><p>Install virtualenvwrapper </p></li>
  <li><p>Create virtual environment </p></li>
  <li><p>Install Django-Cms</p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>I think, I'll be is ok from Install virtualenvwrapper to the Django-Cms installation because I have already done it, but in the first steps I got some troubles.</p>
  
  <p>I download <code>Python 2.z</code> from python.org the <strong>Python 2.7.3 Mac OS X 64-bit/32-bit x86-64/i386 Installer</strong> (for Mac OS X 10.6 and later [2]), installed whit the wizard . That create a directory <code>/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions</code> with inside my <code>2.7</code> folder.</p>
  
  <p>My directory <code>/System/Library/Python</code> is empty</p>
  
  <p>I'm sure I've Python installed cos:</p>
  
  <pre><code>python --version
  Python 2.7.3
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but when I try <code>easy_install pip</code> it gave me:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Could not find platform independent libraries &lt;prefix&gt;
  Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to &lt;prefix&gt;[:&lt;exec_prefix&gt;]
  'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/bin/easy_install-2.6", line 7, in &lt;module&gt;
      from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
    File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/Extras/lib/python/pkg_resources.py", line 16, in &lt;module&gt;
      import sys, os, zipimport, time, re, imp, new
  ImportError: No module named os**
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now no idea of what does mean ...so if somebody could help out from this and put me on the direction where I can istall my virtualenvwrapper I can take it from there.</p>
  
  <p>I'm Junior a front end developer never touch back end so pls be specific and explain me what I need to do as u speak with a child.</p>
