Could be, but at least two posts on this and the main python board
said that python builds out of the box
to Quote
"You'll have to build it yourself. That's not very hard, extract the
tar archive and run:
cd Python-2.4.2
./configure --enable-framework
make
sudo make install
"
Anyway I restored my old 2.4.1 installation and then did a
sudo makeframework install and that worked and preserved my old
installed packages.
Thats what I get for taking the message boards to literally.
