Could you please point to an exact location of setup.py to be edited.
I found several files under xen-unstable.hg.
export PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages
doesn't help.
Boris.

You need to change the default python version used by `setup.py' which
calls the standard Python setup machinery. I'm no python expert but
I think you might be able to get the Xen build system to do the right
thing by making `python' on $PATH point to the python version you want
it to use.
It seems like a bug to me that it uses `python' rather than having a
variable `PYTHON' but we probably won't fix that in 3.4 now.

That comment is about the Debian Xen packages and isn't relevant if
you're building it yourself. When you build Xen your build version
gets the python version
you used baked into it.
