Hi,

Yes, you are right, DOLFIN should go into
/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages by default when using Python
2.6 and Ubuntu. This is fixed now in the development repository. If
you are using DOLFIN 0.9.7 or older you either have to set the
PYTHONPATH as you did, or you can reconfigure DOLFIN and set both
pythonModuleDir and pythonExtDir to
/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages.
