That is a command you should run as "root". It's not the cause
of your problems, however, because:

Isn't it obvious? You've damaged your installation with a Python 2.4 that
overrides Fedora 9's Python 2.5.x. It's incompatible, incomplete and
hides Python 2.5.x completely as you can see in the strace. Everything
is searched for only in your private /scisoft/... tree instead of
/usr/lib/python2.5/...  I guess if you run

  which python ; python -V

it doesn't point to Fedora 9's /usr/bin/python
