Okay, and where are the files installed when you do "make install"? For
me it looks like

copying build/lib/zenmapCore/ScanProfileConf.py -> /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/zenmapCore
copying build/lib/zenmapCore/NmapCommand.py -> /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/zenmapCore
copying build/lib/zenmapCore/ServiceList.py -> /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/zenmapCore
copying build/lib/zenmapCore/DiffHtml.py -> /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/zenmapCore
copying build/lib/zenmapCore/__init__.py -> /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/zenmapCore

so they are installed in /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages, which is also
in my sys.path. An import error would be caused if where they are
installed is not in sys.path.

If you find out that the installation directory is not in sys.path, can
you try setting the environment variable PYTHONPATH to the installation
directory? sys.path will include PYTHONPATH automatically. Something
like

        PYTHONPATH="/usr/local/python2.5/site-packages" zenmap

Also, can you run Zenmap from its source tree (./zenmap)?
