So stop providing libraries for 2.3, eliminate the confusion, and have them install that one extra package.
That's what I would do if I were reasonably sure that everyone else did the same.
Which makes me wondering: who is distributing Mac Python packages at all at the moment? There's the PackageManager archive, yours, and Fink, but is there anything else? Fink is separate anyway (they have their own Python), and PackageManager seems to be on its way to the museum.
So if your archive is the only one that matters anyway, then we (the participants of this SIG) could start a massive packaging campaign to make it the "industry standard".
Well if it were my decision I'd say that people should stop caring about 2.3, because 2.4 is better in every way (except "they don't already have it") and more
Personally, I agree, but then I know how important the "they already have it" (plus "it's the official Apple version") argument is for many others. Since I publish packages for the benefit of others, I do listen to them.
