Devs -

I got OSHIP installed and working!  I ended up downloading a fresh tar of
python2.5.4 and compiled from source:

./configure --prefix=/home/charles/mypython2.5.4
exec-prefix=/home/charles/mypython2.5.4
make
make altinstall

Then to configure easy_install and virtualenv I performed:

wget http://peak.telecommunity.com/dist/ez_setup.py
./python ez_setup.py
easy_install virtualenv

All of the install steps after this worked flawlessly!

Thank you all!

- Charles
