Python - pip module install 2.6 instead of 2.7

Question

I use Django 1.3 with Python 2.7 on Ubuntu 10.04.

$ python
Python 2.7.1 ...
>>>

I'm trying to install the python module django-grappelli.

$ pip install django-grappelli

Requirement already satisfied: django-grappelli in /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages

Apparently it's installing into the Python repo's version (2.6) instead of 2.7.
How can I install it on 2.7 ?

Run pip with python 2.7. Note that python2.7 isn't provided or supported for Lucid (10.04)

how do you run pip with python2.7. And what do you mean that it ain't supported for Lucid? can I still use it?

I mean Lucid doesn't come with a python2.7 package. And if you were to install it from a PPA / from source, the python app / module packages in Lucid wouldn't work with it.
