Utilities Install Issue

"At least one person mentioned a problem with installing Utilities and C/Py. More specifically, the paths were not the same.

I've researched this and found only one way to reproduce the problem. If you install the source bundle of one and the distribution of another on certain platforms, you will indeed end up with two different locations. Lesson here is to either install both source bundles or both distributions and no mix them." -- Charles Bell
