If you're still using 2.4.1 you're going to want to add LSPrefersPPC=True to the plist. Otherwise your app will not run on i386, because it will not know to use Rosetta. > I managed to get it working again, which required: > 1) Setting packages=['matplotlib','numpy'] in setup.py's options for > py2app. That could be handled with recipes, or with eggs when py2app grows support for that.

That's a bug, but not the right fix. Trunk is fixed. > 3) Adding setup_options['options']['py2app']['includes'].extend > (['pytz.zoneinfo.UTC']) to the setup.py, this is required by > matplotlib.

What other alternatives are there? Sure, someone can write the recipes and send me a patch. I don't currently use matplotlib, numpy, or scipy nor do I have an example I can test with so I'm not going to do it. -bob ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
