there are many pitfalls in installing Python on Macs. it definitely isn't straightforward because usually the one you install will conflict with the that Apple ships with Mac OS X. i would second the recommendation to use MacPorts, homebrew, finkCmdr, or similar tools.
someone should do a fresh install, document the procedure, and make a blogpost out of it! :-) cheers, --wesley - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "A computer never does what you want... only what you tell it." wesley chun : wescpy at gmail : @wescpy/+wescpy Python training & consulting : http://CyberwebConsulting.com "Core Python" books : http://CorePython.com Python blog: http://wescpy.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
