Be careful when playing with the file/directory/link/whateva that is /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.Framework. I ran into some wierdness trying to change this into a symlink and move it around (i.e. change it back and forth from pointing to Apple's python and my own). Also, take care when using the 'python' command after installing your own framework build. It's kind of a pain to get a framework build to stick python, pythonw, etc.. in /usr/bin - all of my stuff was in /usr/local/bin, even though I passed --prefix=/usr to the configure script. Sure would be rad if there were a doc outlining how exactly apple builds python for inclusion into OSX. ;) Cheers, -=JR On Jul 31, 2004, at 7:24 AM, Antonio Rodriguez wrote: > Graham, > > I was able to get it 2.7.10 to work on the stock apache with OSX by > just downloading the latest python and doing a framework build (after > moving aside the one that comes with OSX).
