My first question was:
"where the heck is /purelib ?"

That's an artifact of how the distutils install command compiles .py files under bdist_mpkg, eventually I'll fix that.

Thanks. It made the error confusing enough that it took me a while to figure out what was going on.


So, am I right that those older versions of altgraph and macholib were installed by an older Py2app?

Yes, probably 0.1.5. It has been in the py2app directory since 0.1.6.

makes sense. I had 0.1.4 or something in my download directory.

If so, some sort of waring should be put in about that.

that is, "warning".

py2app is not a package, it's just a directory pointed to by a pth.

but couldn't be? I why isn't it in site-packages anyway? Though I imagine you have a good reason, I'd like to know what it is. The whole pth thing seems kind of clunky to me.


The packages altgraph (my fork of "graphlib"), modulegraph, bdist_mpkg, macholib, and py2app are all exclusively maintained by me, and are only released as part of py2app.

So putting them in the py2app dir, where you have them now, makes sense.

You don't need them for "something else", especially an older version.

When this problem arose, I just did a quick google search for altgraph, and it looked like a generally useful package, so It wasn't clear that it is used exclusively for py2app.


Oh well, I've got it all working now, very well, as a matter of fact.

Now I just need to figure out how to give my app an icon.
