The maintainer can choose what paths to search etc. But, if I were the maintainer, I'd do both. Have a specific path for your framework python that is searched before the other fink paths. Then you can have modules that require macpython in your 2.5- framework type and still leverage the normal 2.5 modules. Modules in the framework dir will be found first, so you can actually have the cake and eat it too. Peter ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
