There can be subtle differences between a "stock" Python and the system Python on Mac OS X 10.5.
Also there can be different versions of Python installed in different versions of MacOSX. So if you distribute an app that relies on the system Python, at the least you have to test it against all the Python versions it's likely to encounter, and possibly provide different versions of the app for different versions of MacOSX. Another thing to keep in mind is that if you use something like py2app or py2exe, it doesn't include the whole Python distribution, just the stdlib modules the app actually uses. So it's not as bad as including a whole Python installation for every app. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
