distutils.errors.DistutilsPlatformError: $MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET

Setting the above-mentioned environment var. to "10.3" before
launching python2.4 resolves the problem, but does anyone know of a
fix without having to change your startup (.profile/.login) files?
Otherwise, this should probably be added to
/sw/bin/init.* so people don't have to modify their environment
before using the updated scipy.
Here is what the scipy and python maintainer answered last week on
fink-devel to the same problem:
Anytime you use the distutils module (which is apparently imported by
scipy) you must set the MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET env var to 10.3.
This is a python 2.4 'feature'.
Thanks for pointing this out, Martin. I've been wondering if calling
distutils during runtime is rather something that could be avoided, but
the scipy people don't seem to have an issue with that. Thinking about
my suggestion to add the declaration to init.sh, maybe that would
clutter up the fink startup too much. Adding a note to the package
description should be helpful, though.
Cheers,
Derek
