-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Yes, you can install Macpython 2.4.1 and wxPython 2.6 separately from what ships with Apple. The Apple stuff in in /System/Frameworks. They will never see each other.
I also use your strategy of developing with Python 2.4.1/wxPython 2.6 and testing/deploying against Py 2.3.5/wxPy 2.5. The Apple system installation is a very convenient deployment target. One caveat: the Apple system stuff is older, and especially (with wxPython) a bit buggier. That's why, for instance, Boa won't run on the Apple stuff. wxPython was a moving target until 2.6. However, I haven't seen any huge problems in the stuff I'm developing/working with. Your mileage may vary.
