There are other bug fixes and enhancements, and if you don't help me test svn then the next release might be broken for your purposes.
I am perfectly happy with the current release :-)
Generally I don't run beta/test versions unless they are packaged up in such a way that they are trivial to (un)install, and trivial to get back to the old version. For example, Robin does that with wxPython release candidates.
Since py2app requires no "installation" process, it's rather trivial.
Install svn trunk (works whether or not py2app is already installed):
# download/install subversion from <http://www.codingmonkeys.de/mbo/> if you don't already have it. You should, it rocks.
mkdir ~/src
mkdir -p ~/Library/Python/2.3/site-packages
svn co http://svn.red-bean.com/bob/py2app/trunk ~/src/py2app
echo "$HOME/src/py2app" > /Library/Python/2.3/py2app.pth
# optionally add ~/src/py2app/scripts to your PATH
Update to current release: svn up ~/src/py2app
Uninstall (restores existing py2app):
rm -rf ~/src/py2app # if not restoring existing py2app, rm this file instead echo py2app > /Library/Python/2.3/py2app.pth
The mkdir -p line in the installation instructions is superfluous. I was writing the directions to reflect how I have py2app installed at first, but then realized it wouldn't necessarily override an existing installation and changed it but forgot to remove that line.
