virtualenv no such file or directory

I am using python2.7 on Mac OS 10.8 in the version installed by homebrew. As I had some issues with vtk, I unlinked python (brew unlink python) and linked it again (brew link python). It seems that now the another python version is used, not the homebrew python as I would like. There is no symlink called /usr/local/bin/python anymore, which used to be set before.

Attached the output of brew --config, any help is appreciated:

Your vtk issues (especially the python bindings) have beed fixed today in homebrew-science. But you'll have to brew update, brew rm vtk and brew install vtk --with-qt (I guess you really want the Qt, so VTK supports PyQt).

If you have set your PATH so that /usr/local/bin comes first, it should pick up a brewed python at /usr/local/bin/python. If that symlink is not there, even after brew link python, then I can only suggest to brew reinstall python to fix that.

If this does not fix your issue, please open an issue at Homebrew's github tracker.
