I have seen various posts regarding this problem over the years but I flummoxed
by how I got here and what to do now that I am.
I am running MacOS X 10.6.6 I started out using the system python 2.6. I built the
3d extensions (PyQt, numpy, PyOpenGL &c) and they are installed in
/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages
As I expected. My app runs fine when invoked directly from the Terminal.
Poor internet search results trying to locate and install py2app resulted
in the installation of ActiveStates pypm and Macports hg along with some
variants of easy_install. These missteps seem to have installed another
version of python 2.6 in the path of /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework
chain with it own site-packages folder.
As a result my installed 3d party extension were no longer found when starting
the app from the Terminal. Once I removed this framework. and the .local folder
created in my home folder. I also removed the .profile file that was modified
(created) by one of the previous installs. I discovered some installed put a
python in /usr/local/bin and removed it.
I tested my app from the Terminal and all was good again. The sys.path variable
prints the expected site-packages.
['/Users/mef/Development/-Applications-/Teatro',

After I run python setup.py py2app
I run dist/Teatro.app and the sys.path contents printed to the console looks like this:

What should I do here. I think from what I have read I should NOT add a site-packages link in
/usr/lib/python2.6. or is it that I mangled the installation of the system python somehow ?
