I'm running Ubuntu. I installed python2.7 and the latest version of Postgresql.
When I installed psycopg, the package showed up in the default Ubuntu version of python instead of the 2.7 version that I want to use.
I tried to reinstall from within the directory I wanted, but it still referenced the other python. When I open the python shell, the version in 2.7.
How can I install psycopg into 2.7?
Thanks for your help.

apt works with the Python it installed in the first place.
You need to use easy_install (or, better, pip) to install additional libraries to the Python you installed yourself.
