[Pythonmac-SIG] relocatable Python framework?

Hello all!

I maintain a scientific data-analysis application that my team has  
ported to the Macintosh. It's a bunch of C++ strung together with  
Python, and so far that's worked really well.

I want to package this collection of C++ and Python into a Macintosh  
application. And I want the Python framework to go inside the  
application. We'd start via a shell script that calls the Python  
inside our application package.

I've got all the other frameworks and libs set up as relocatable  
objects. But Python is not playing along.

Maybe the user will drag our app bundle to /Applications, but maybe  
not. I can't know where everything is until run-time.

How to I ship the Python framework as a relocatable package inside  
our application?

Thanks!
