Yes, this is an app I have written. I could take the time to rebuild it with the latest Python, yes. However, the simpler solution seemed to be to try to figure out why it won't reconfigure itself. I have OS X 10.3.8 and a clean install works perfectly fine. Surely someone somewhere has used MacPython 2.2 on OS X 10.3.8 and heard of a similar issue, with ConfigurePythonCarbon not working after preferences were destroyed. This is why I asked here. >>He claims the only thing that has changed is his preferences were wiped >>out.
