I'd probably lobby to get them to fix the build process rather than maintain platform hack after platform hack. > Here I'm not quite clear on what you are suggesting---I'm not > clear on where I should be when I "ln -s ../Python ..."

It doesn't matter where you do it from, so long as the target is right. The target I gave you is correct. There is a MH_DYLIB at /Library/Frameworks/ Python.framework/Versions/Current/Python, which is the parent dir of the above symlink target. -bob _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
