If I recall correctly, the actual Python installation is in 
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework but the site-package is 
symlinked to /Library/Python. Do not attempt to touch that. This 
installation can be accessed in Terminal by typing "pythonw".

Are you or will you be using package managers such as darwinports or Fink?
