So providing a Framework build is a good thing for these uses. Though I wonder if there's a need for a pre-built one with an installer --wouldn't folks using XCode be able to built it themselves? But either way, this isn't a use case for conda, or brew or .... Also, there's no reason that a "PythonFramework" couldn't be a separate package in conda -- you just wouldn't want to have all the other Python-y stuff depending on it. If you are embedding the interpreter, you are managing all the the dependencies anyway. Now someone just needs the time to do it :-( -CHB -- Christopher Barker, PhD Python Language Consulting - Teaching - Scientific Software Development - Desktop GUI and Web Development - wxPython, numpy, scipy, Cython
