It's an mpkg, so you need to do the same for all of the subpackages, too. > has anone else had the same problem? Yes, see the thread titled "ANN: pygame 1.7.0 for Mac OS X 10.3" .zip files created by Python's ZipFile don't interact well with unzip(1). bdist_mpkg got patched with a workaround, but apparently the pygame installer .zip never got updated. Unzipping with StuffIt Expander will set the appropriate permissions. -- Robert Kern [EMAIL PROTECTED] "In the fields of hell where the grass grows high Are the graves of dreams allowed to die." -- Richard Harter _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
