More notes on this.
(1)
--disable-toolbox-glue did not help:
./configure --prefix=/Users/gary/opt/py25 LDFLAGS=-L/opt/local/lib
OPT=-I/opt/local/include --disable-toolbox-glue
(...this then led to the same problem I reported before, eventually).
(2)
Looking at the ``make install`` output, it seems the .so files went
into ~/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages, rather than where I had
requested:
copying build/lib.macosx-10.3-i386-2.5/cmath.so -> /Users/gary/Library/
Python/2.5/site-packages
This seems like the best clue, but I wasn't able to take it anywhere
myself.
(3)
I decided to doublecheck my PYTHONHOME and PYTHONPATH environment
variables
imposter:Python-2.5.2 gary$ echo $PYTHONHOME
imposter:Python-2.5.2 gary$ echo $PYTHONPATH
I then did a quick glance at ``env``: nothing seemed amiss.
Will look more as I have time.

Hi. I'm assuming this is a python-on-mac oddity, but maybe I'm wrong.
I wanted a local non-framework build of Python 2.5.2. I did the
following in a Python 2.5.2 source download:
./configure --prefix=/Users/gary/opt/py25 LDFLAGS=-L/opt/local/lib
OPT=-I/opt/local/include
make
make install
(The LDFLAGS and OPT are there to get readline and zlib from Darwin
Ports in the Python.)
I got some warnings about expat, but nothing serious during
configure and make.
But oddly, /Users/gary/opt/py25/library/python2.5/lib-dynload was
completely empty. So, for instance, I couldn't do basic things like
``import math``.
I then did make test. A few unrelated things failed--expat related,
for instance--but most tests passed, including math tests. In fact,
the .so files were in the build directory.
I then did the following:
ln build/lib.macosx-10.3-i386-2.5/*.so ~/opt/py25/lib/python2.5/lib-
dynload/
Now everything seems to work. :-D :-/
Anybody know if I did something wrong? Or is this a bug in the
Python 2.5 build? I couldn't find a similar report with Google, but
maybe I wasn't looking in the right metaphorical corner.
