well, I don't think any changes have been made for 26, so it's actually
less likely to work!

'/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/Resources/version.plist':
doesn't exist or not a regular file
well, indeed, it doesn't look like that file exists. There is one in my
2.5 distro:
$ cat
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/Resources/version.plist
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN"
"http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>BuildVersion</key>
<string>1</string>
<key>CFBundleShortVersionString</key>
<string>2.5alpha0</string>
<key>CFBundleVersion</key>
<string>2.5alpha0</string>
<key>ProjectName</key>
<string>Python</string>
<key>ReleaseStatus</key>
<string>alfa</string>
<key>SourceVersion</key>
<string>2.4a0</string>
</dict>
</plist>
I don't know where it came from, what it is used for, or why it is
listing the version as "2.5alpha0", but you could try making a copy,
changing "2.5" to "2.6", and putting it in your 2.6 distro.
I think you'll have better luck with 2.5, though.
