OK, I've this:
PYTHONPATH=~/lib/python2.0:/usr/local/lib/python2.0
PYTHONHOME=~

Now, when I put spam.py in ~/lib/python2.0, it works. But what should I
do to make visible an extension module to the system (without cluttering
global configuration)?. There are some Setup.* files in
/usr/local/lib/python2.0/config/ (main python files) that list
dependencies beetwen .py and extension modules; do I have to make a copy
of it in my home dir and add my module there? I've tried to do so, but
nothing happened. Did i miss something?

Thanks,

yogin
