Hi David,
the problem is that the 2.7.2 is "occupying" the command line. So when
you type "python", you end up working with 2.7.2, rather than the
2.7.1. So all your install efforts go towards 2.7.2.

It's a nuisance the folks at Python and the folks at Apple decided to
deal with Python sub versions (2.7.1 vs 2.7.2) in such a way.

From our earlier correspondence I know:
python version 2.7.1 (r271:86832, Jun 16 2011, 16:59:06)
site-packages is at /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages

python version 2.7.2 (v2.7.2:8527427914a2, Jun 11 2011, 15:22:34)
site-packages is at /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/
lib/python2.7/site-packages

If you open the 2.7.2 site-pacakges folder you will see the results of
your install work. Robofab, DialogKit, Vanilla, FontTools - either
pointed to by *.pth files or as actual packages in folders.

Now open the 2.7.1 site-packages folder in another window. It is
probably rather empty.

The easiest thing to try would be to proceed to *copy* all files and
folders that relate to RoboFab, DialogKit, FontTools, Vanilla
(including files ending in .pth and folders) from one to the other.
This might require you to type your password.

That will put all the modules on the search path for the 2.7.1 python,
and they will be available to FontLab 5.1.
