Description

Hi,
after installing Arista 0.9.6 on Fedora 14 I can't start it because it installs packages in /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/ instead of /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/

Only after manually moving files to /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ Arista starts.

Thank you for this great app!

Research direction

Start by inspecting Arista 0.9.6's installation or packaging configuration and reproduce the Fedora 14 install. Trace why packages target Python 2.6 instead of Python 2.7; done means a normal installation places them in the active Python site-packages directory and Arista starts without manually moving files.
