I had a similar problem with "ruby", obviously with another program
recently. I simply did an R&R of the port and now everything works fine.
I have found over the years that certain programs just seem to disappear
for no apparent reason and usually at the most in-opportunistic times.

By the way, does "which python" reveal anything?
