BTW, the official 2.7.1 OS X installers are now available: http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7.1/
With Python 2.7, there are two Mac OS X installer variants available for download: the "traditional" 32-bit-only (Intel and PPC) version that installs and runs on all versions of OS X from 10.3.9 through current 10.6.x; and a new 64-bit/32-bit (Intel only) variant. As discussed in http://bugs.python.org/issue9227, there were problems using Tkinter and IDLE with the original 2.7 64/32 installer. The problem is that the only supported non-X11 64-bit Tcl/Tk at the moment is the one supplied by Apple in 10.6 and the installer tried unsuccessfully to support both 10.5 and 10.6. For 2.7.1, the 64/32 installer now only supports 10.6.x and will only use the Apple-supplied Tcl/Tk 8.5. The 32-bit-only installer is still built to link with either an Active/State Tcl/Tk 8.4, if installed in /Library/Frameworks, or fallback to the Apple-supplied Tcl/Tk 8.4 in OS X 10.4 through 10.6. The official 3.1.3 installer is also now available: http://www.python.org/download/releases/3.1.3/ As with previous 3.1.x installers, it is a "traditional" 32-bit-only installer (Intel/PPC, 10.3.9 -> 10.6, Tcl/Tk 8.4, etc). -- 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
