[chirp_devel] run_tests: No module named serial

[chirp.cordless at xoxy.net]

OK, I think the mystery is largely solved.
Inside the chirp.app package, I find the following (edited for brevity):

dan[Contents]$ pwd
/Applications/_Dans_apps/chirp-daily-20140407.app/Contents
dan[Contents]$ ll
...
lrwxr-xr-x  1 dan  staff  103 Apr  9 13:40 CHIRP -> /opt/kk7ds//Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python

So there's a symbolic link to the "correct" Python inside the package,
created about the time I first ran it. (In addition to a fresh hg clone,
I thought I'd update my operating bits as well).
So where did that link come from?

=====================
dan[Contents]$ cat Macos/chirp
#!/bin/bash

LOCATION=$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE}")

PYTHON=/opt/kk7ds//Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python

if [ -x $PYTHON ]; then
    ln -s $PYTHON "${LOCATION}/../CHIRP"
    PYTHON=${LOCATION}/../CHIRP
    export PYTHONPATH="/opt/kk7ds//Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/"
else
    PYTHON=/opt/kk7ds/bin/python2.7
fi

exec "$PYTHON" "${LOCATION}/../Resources/chirp/chirpw"
=======================

Looks like somebody decided that the wrong Python was getting
used too often, and taught chirp to find the right one and use it.

But no such magic is in place for run_tests.
I know how to deal with it.

Thanks for the clues.
