Hi Nathan, Yes, I can open python : shankar-MacBook-Pro:yt hitu$ yt-i386/bin/python Python 2.7.2 (default, Jul 5 2012, 12:32:35) [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5664)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

The error you're seeing can happen when python is built on a 64 bit platform but tries to link against 32 bit libraries. Can you try opening the python that install script built (it should be in $YT_DEST/bin/python2.7) typing 'import pyexpat'?. I've never seen this error before so apologies for not having a quick solution.
