I'm currently trying to set up pinax on top of Python 2.7.1 and Django 1.3.
For the first few steps, one is required to set up virtualenv, with the following commands:
$ virtualenv mysite-env
$ source mysite-env/bin/activate
(mysite-env)$
I execute the first command, and it creates a mysite-env directory, but gives the following error:
New python executable in mysite-env/bin/python
Error [Errno 2] No such file or directory while executing command install_name_tool -change /Library/Frameworks/.../Versions/2.7/Python @executable_path/../.Python mysite-env/bin/python
Could not call install_name_tool -- you must have Apple's development tools installed Traceback (most recent call last):

raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory
Executing the second command does not work (this makes sense considering the first failed):
bash: mysite-env/bin/activate: No such file or directory
I've read up on others that have had similar problems.
On another thread, someone mentioned there's a bug with Virtualenv on 10.6.
On google groups, another person offered a patch for Virtualenv 1.3.3.
What is my best bet at this point? Should I install Virtualenv 1.3.3 and try the patch (I know it doesn't work for 1.6), or should I try to make it work with my current version? Is there an alternative to Virtualenv I could use (keep in mind I am contrained by the setup of pinax).
Appreciate the help.
