From my experience, it's *much* easier to compile pygame against a framework version of SDL on MacOSX. Try putting SDL.framework, SDL_image.framework, etc. from the binary distributions of the SDL libraries into your ~/Library/Frameworks. Also, if you haven't done so already, it's probably a good idea to make a private installation of Python itself from source (as a framework in ~/Library/Frameworks), rather than trying to use the system one. You're less likely to have trouble with version conflicts then, since you can use whatever Python version you need, and you can let all your Python extensions install themselves where they naturally want to go. -- Greg
