I recently added Python scripting to our app (an open source, cross-platform Life app called Golly; see http://golly.sourceforge.net/ if you're interested).
Based on what I read at http://pythonmac.org/wiki/FAQ (excellent resource BTW), our makefile uses these variables when compiling and linking: PYTHON_INCLUDE = -I`python -c "import distutils.sysconfig; print distutils.sysconfig.get_python_inc()"` PYTHON_LINK = `python -c "import distutils.sysconfig; print distutils.sysconfig.get_config_var('LINKFORSHARED')"` This works fine on OS 10.3.9, but on an Intel Mac running OS 10.4.5 the link step fails because PYTHON_LINK is set to this: -u __dummy -u _PyMac_Error -framework System Python.framework/Versions/2.3/Python -framework CoreServices -framework Foundation Does anybody know why it contains "Python.framework/Versions/2.3/Python" rather than "-framework Python"? I can fix the problem by explicitly using PYTHON_LINK = -u __dummy -u _PyMac_Error -framework System -framework Python -framework CoreServices -framework Foundation but presumably that's not a good long-term solution. This is my first project using gcc, makefiles, frameworks, Python, etc, so I'm still somewhat foggy about lots of things. Any advice would be much appreciated!
