python sys.path on freebsd

first time python user, long time fgt.

installed python 2.5 on freebsd, pyOpenSSL ends up in /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ and sys.path is ['', '/usr/local/lib/python25.zip', '/usr/local/lib/python2.5', '/usr/local/lib/python2.5/plat-freebsd7', '/usr/local/lib/python2.5/lib-tk', '/usr/local/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload', '/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages', '/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages']

i'm trying to execute a prewritten script out of a project i downloaded and it has this code

try:
    openssl_installed = False
    from OpenSSL import SSL
    openssl_installed = True
except ImportError:
    pass

it still doesn't find OpenSSL
