I'd make a new package and ensure that it does not have any conflicting files with any fink python packages. There then does not need to be any interaction with the current python maintainers. Although Apple puts symlinks from the framework back into /usr/lib etc, it is not necessary for fink to do so. This will allow you to customize the python framework build as necessary for your PyQt apps. Peter ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
