The Installer app won't let you see the target path of each package in 
the metapackage so you'll have to open each of the them (we're talking 
official binaries since you explicitly named that particular DMG file) 
and check where they are going to install their content.
Most likely they'll go in /usr/local so you won't have clashes with 
system's python.

An alternative is to install and learn to use a package manager, I use 
MacPorts that requires full Xcode. Brew should require the smaller 
command line package. Fink should require no additional packages since 
it's basically APT. There are other managers as well, these are the 
most common on OS X.
