Did you try building without using the --with-framework-name option? That's not an option that gets tested much. There should not be a need to use it since different versions of python (2.6, 2.7, 3.1, etc) can co-exist without problem in the same framework. The only potential issue are the unversioned symlinks in /usr/local/bin/, i.e. /usr/local/bin/python will likely get overridden by the most recently installed python 2.x. Either adjust manually or stick to using the versioned symlinks, /usr/local/bin/python2.7 etc. or set your PATH to put the appropriate framework bin directory prior to /usr/local/bin. If it appears that the --with-framework-name option is the problem, please open an issue on the python.org bug tracker. -- Ned Deily n...@acm.org -- [] _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/Pythonmac-SIG
