I'm not sure what you mean by "running as root" (which I've never done on OS X). My account is also the admin account, but I'm not using admin permissions for anything. I am not running "sudo" for anything. My /usr/local has been chown'ed to me (the preferred way to maintain /usr/local for homebrew) so sudo is not needed for the /usr/local installs, and it is also not needed for installing the public framework. I'm installing it exactly the way that works successfully for 2.6.4 and 2.7a3. I just did a "make install" and reran "make test" with the same results as previously: test_tcl 2010-03-02 15:27:08.016 python.exe[40951:60b] The application with bundle ID (null) is running setugid(), which is not allowed. make: [test] Error 1 (ignored) DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH=/Volumes/Tracking/Temp-work/Sandbox-installs/Python-2.6.5rc1: ./python.exe -E -tt ./Lib/test/regrtest.py -l (That's the 1st time through; the 2nd time it doesn't show the DYLD... line.) Anything else I should try? -Tom ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/ _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/Pythonmac-SIG
