Hi Adnan, I would recommend you to trying to install mapnik 0.7.X on your machine first using the Mapnik os x binaries located at http://dbsgeo.com/downloads/ , along with Kyngchaos Proj4 Framework binaries.
Once you have mapnik 0.7.X working, you can try installing mapnik2 with homebrew by runnning `brew install mapnik2 --with-cairo`. After running this, you should be able to call python -c "import mapnik2". It is only a guess, but if you really want to install mapnik 0.7.1 with homebrew, I think that changing the head of the home brew formula would have to work (once having installed the Kyngchaos binaries). #/usr/local/Library/Formula/mapnik2.rb class Mapnik2 <Formula head 'http://svn.mapnik.org/tags/release-0.7.1', :using => :svn ... I also had to edit remove the osm plugin since I was having some problems with it... # "INPUT_PLUGINS=shape,raster,gdal,postgis,ogr,sqlite,osm", "INPUT_PLUGINS=shape,raster,gdal,postgis,ogr,sqlite", Hope this helps.
