==> Caveats
A "distutils.cfg" has been written to:
  /usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.2/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/distutils
specifing the install-scripts folder as:
  /usr/local/share/python
 
If you install Python packages via "python setup.py install", easy_install, pip,
any provided scripts will go into the install-scripts folder above, so you may
want to add it to your PATH.
 
Distribute has been installed, so easy_install is available.
To update distribute itself outside of Homebrew:
    /usr/local/share/python/easy_install pip
    /usr/local/share/python/pip install --upgrade distribute
 
See: https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/wiki/Homebrew-and-Python
 
Framework Python was installed to:
  /usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.2/Frameworks/Python.framework
 
You may want to symlink this Framework to a standard OS X location,
such as:
    mkdir ~/Frameworks
    ln -s "/usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.2/Frameworks/Python.framework" ~/Frameworks
