[mod_python] Several Python Installations

I have two python installations on a single machine:

    /usr/bin/python2.1 (with threads, SuSE rpm installation)

and

    /opt/inworks/bin/python2.1   (no threads for mod_python)


Anything compiled good.

mod_python - libs are only installed in
    /opt/inworks/lib/python2.1/site-packages/mod_python

Anything works fine.

BUT: if there is a symbolic link:
  /usr/bin/python -> /usr/bin/python2.1
then mod_python tries to import mod_python.apache from
/usr/lib/python2.1/site-packages and fails.

if I delete  the symbolic link /usr/bin/python and
restart apache anything is good again.


WHY DOES IT BEHAVE LIKE THIS? is it a problem of libpython???

Thank you very much in advance.
