But interestingly, the c:\python25\ directory also does *not* include msvcr71.dll. I used this installer:
http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.5.1/python-2.5.1.msi Something else like maybe the pywin32 stuff must be installing it. So it seems likely that the pyxxxx.exe installers just don't work on a fresh non-updated WinXP system. I think that leaves you with one option; include msvcr71.dll in your installer and extract it to the same temp directory used to save and run the pyxxxx.exe installers. Once you get them installed, msvcr71.dll may not be needed. Although that depends on how the pyxxx projects are built, which I know nothing about. -Brad _______________________________________________ pygtk mailing list pygtk@daa.com.au http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/
