You can also download the tools from developer.apple.com. The issue with python is that until you run --install, Xcode doesn't create a /usr/include directory and python's configure script needs to look there for certain headers, like zlib.h. Since it doesn't find them, it doesn't build the corresponding modules. Xcode DOES install command line stubs that look in the SDK directory for things, but anything other than the compiler won't find them, like a configure script. While other packages may build successfully, they might not actually be building correctly because they don't know to look in the SDK for the headers. I designed the python packages to explicitly check that it was built correctly and fail if not. Most other packages don't do that, they'll just silently build wrong. It's turning out to be good that I did since it's telling people that Xcode isn't installed fully. :) Daniel
