Comment 1 for bug 281073

Here's the thing about the plugin-path:
By default, you don't need it, and it is set to <auto>/lib. Although, <auto> isn't supported yet on OSX, not even on the CVS head. I'm working hard to make it supported, and this will be fixed in 1.6.0. Also, I hope to have makepanda support on OSX and official universal binaries. (Check the 'osx-installer' blueprint for more info.)

I'm not quite sure what you mean with the other part of the bug report.
