Hi Ned, thanks for the reply. The problem with MacPorts is that it installs everything around its own Python25, which is again in a different place and I don't know how to persuade it to install PyObjc where I want it.
Independently I found this page: <http://forums.macrumors.com/archive/index.php/t-377881.html> and when I add this to my PythonPath: /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/Extras/lib/python/PyObjC /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/Extras/lib/python/py2app it all seems to work: at least it seems now that I can import objc, AppKit, QTKit tonight i'll be able to see whether it really works. This workaround seems a bit dodgy to me, but it works ? If anybody has a better suggestion, i'd be very curious.. ciao, Joost.
