This is so much more difficult than I imagined it could be. I've added the main python dir and the lib dir to my path and nothing has changed. I may be able to figure out how to use the depends tool, so far it looks pretty obscure to a newb. This is all being done on a new workstation. It is a little puzzling that straight up installs of postgres and python result in a config that doesn't respond to the supposedly simple one line command to add python support. I've read about this for hours and it does not normally appear to be a problematic process. Thanks to both of you for trying to help.
