Perhaps I don't understand what you mean by "re-configure".  I tried setting
PYTHONPATH first and then did ./configure, make, make install.  There is still
nothing in /usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages (nor dist-packages) related
to GStreamer (it's all pygtk and gtk) and still when I import gst and check
gst.__file__ I get the old version in /usr/lib.  I see that the old version has
a pygst.py file in /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages and I see that the new
version comes with a pygst.py file that does not get installed anywhere, and
certainly not in /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages, which would be the
corresponding location, nor in site-packages.  Ditto for gst.  If they were
installed in /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages, then I could see how
setting PYTHONPATH would enable Python to find it.  Possibly my observations
are irrelevant, in which case some other problem explains the inability of
Python to find the new version of pygst.  I claim no expertise in these
matters, so I am not surprised to learn that my description was bogus.
