I'm curious who maintains the Mac builds of Python these days.
It's not hard to build from source, of course, and that's what I
do...but the binary installer is convenient for many people.
I want to install 3.0 to experiment with all the new features, but
I don't want to do anything horrible to my default Leopard
install, and I'd like to be able to remove 3.0 easily. What's the
most sensible way of doing this? Setting a --prefix of
/opt/python3.0 , for example, or just using the default prefix and
using make altinstall?
What are others doing?
I've had success with multiple python installs setting a custom
--prefix. I wrote what I did here:
