You should not need to set PYTHONPATH at all. That might be the cause
of the problem. It looks like perhaps you have also installed
omnipython for Solaris, which is version 1.5.2. So, you're running
Python 2.2.2 against bytecode files compiled with 1.5.2. Unset
PYTHONPATH and you'll probably be ok.

Cheers,

Duncan.
