Sorry, I don't have any experience with PyGTK or jhbuild. But, in general, if jhbuild is using the standard way of installing python modules and extensions, you probably just need to make sure it finds the "user" python first. If it has a hard-wired path to the system python (/usr/bin/python), you may have to edit something somewhere (for instance, to /usr/local/bin/python). It may be possible to move or copy the installed pygtk module from the system python to the user python but that's really not a good idea: it may not work and you'll likely run into the problem again. For the record, for the system python, you'll probably find (most of) it installed in: /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages For the user python, it needs to be in: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-pack ages There appears to be an active PyGTK mailing list. You might want to check its archives or ask over there. <http://pygtk.org/feedback.html> Good luck! -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
