hi bob,

then why offer the --prefix arg in the first place?  just for
NON-framework installs?

Yes, --prefix is for non-framework installs. If you read the docs for frameworks, you'll see that it's only "lightly tested" with an alternate path. You may have more luck if you just use the defaults. The docs also say that you can move the framework later.

ah ...

anyone else, perhaps with ideas? or should i take this over the the dev
list?

I doubt there's anyone on dev that would be able to help you that isn't also subscribed here.

fair nuf. always best to ask, i find ... cuz 'they' all get pretty ornery if ya don' belong ;-D


You'll probably just have to wait,

beer has been opened ...

or dig deeper into the output of make to find out why MacOS isn't building,
or isn't loading properly.

yup. 1st gotta figure out 'what' MacOS 'is' ...

I suspect that you may have some weird environment variables set, maybe
PYTHONPATH

empty

maybe DYLD_*, etc.

changes, but at the moment,

% echo $DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/local/berkeley-db/lib: /usr/local/cyrus-sasl/lib: /usr/local/ssl/lib: /usr/local/lib: /System/Library/Frameworks: /usr/lib: /usr/X11R6/lib


tried moving/removing the '/System/Library/Frameworks', to no avail ...

You may also want to make sure that the
MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET environment variable is set to 10.3.  The only thing
I left out is that I have MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET set to 10.3 in my rc.

% echo $MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET 10.3

Oh, and note that if you DO move the framework, you will need to run
install_name_tool over it, the python executable, and possibly ALL of the
extensions if MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET was set to 10.2 (or maybe if not set
at all, I haven't confirmed the default behavior when not set).

this i need to remember ...

thanks again.  now to dig & wait =)

richard
