If I type ls -l /usr/local/bin, I get the following in the list:
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 72 Dec 16 10:05 python -> ../../../ Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin/python lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 71 Dec 16 10:05 pydoc -> ../../../ Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin/pydoc lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 79 Dec 16 10:05 python-config - > ../../../Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin/ python-config lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 73 Dec 16 10:05 pythonw -> ../../../ Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin/pythonw
Note that they all go to the "Current" version. Then, in the /Library/ Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions directory, I have:
drwxrwxr-x 10 root admin 340 Oct 1 17:52 2.6 drwxr-xr-x 9 root admin 306 Dec 9 14:01 3.0 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 3 Dec 16 10:06 Current -> 2.6Note that Current goes to 2.6. To switch the "active" version of Python, just switch the symlink from 2.6 to 3.0. That should switch the system.

For example, anything that compiles against python with a bare "-framework Python" flag will grab the (I think) Current dir from /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/VersionsTrue, but "Current" is just a symlink to a particular version - it's easy to put it back -- that's what I've done with 2.6 -- it's installed, but not set as current.-Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception chris.bar...@noaa.gov _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
