Python unicode ucs4

[UserBird]

Installing DSS on Webfaction I found this issue. Is there a way to create a virtualenv with DSS requirements properly configured?

[+] Using data directory: DATA_DIR

[-] Error: Python interpreter "python2.7" is built with ucs2 Unicode

[-] and is not compatible with DSS-provided standard packages.

[-] Please use a Python installation built with "--enable-unicode=ucs4" configuration option

[-] or define DKUPYTHONBIN to an externally-provided Python installation already containing

[-] the required set of standard packages.

Just solved compiling fresh copy with right options:

 wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.9/Python-2.7.9.tgz

 tar xvf Python-2.7.9.tgz 

 cd Python-2.7.9

 pwd

 ./configure --prefix=/home/XXX/webapps/dss/python --enable-unicode=ucs4

 make && make altinstall
