I just tried the 0.99.0 installation myself and ran into the same issue. I expected it to work with my python.org python, which would be the latter path, but instead it went into /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages (where my normal python.org python can't find it). If you are using bdist_mpkg then it should do the right thing as long as you build the python with your python.org python (/Library/Frameworks...) instead of the system python. -- Russell ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
