Firstly, I am using Fedora 20, Python3.3
Basically everytime I have to use any python libraries I have to use:

sys.path.append('/usr/lib/python3.3/site-packages/')

This is getting to be a real problem because trying to use other libraries that need other libraries also can't find the site-packages and it is a real hassle.

I guess my main question is how do I fix this problem without having to do a complete wipe that would affect other parts of the system?

Edit:

A huge part of my problem is that gives a could not Import Module django error when just trying to python3 manage.py runserver, and django was indeed installed via pip-python3
Also if i add the above (sys.path.append....) it does fix the django module problem but I shouldn't have to do this, I'm just not sure what the problem is

Shouldn't the appropriate directory already be on the path by default? Are you sure you're installing to the right place? – user2357112 supports Monica Mar 19 '14 at 03:46
Bengt i have already looked through there, it doesn't answer my question – OzzyGreyman Mar 19 '14 at 03:49
