It depends on what version of Python and what distribution you are talking about. For the current python.org 2.6 installer for OS X, python 2.6.4, you just need to install setuptools/easy_install (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools) for that python and then use it to install pyobjc. At the moment, Python 2.6.4 is the only python.org python that has been fully tested with and is known to work on 10.6 (Snow Leopard). For EPD Pythons, you should ask on an Enthought forum of people who are familiar with Enthought's OS X distribution. Chances are, though, that their python2.5 does not allow you to correctly build packages with C extension modules (such as those in PyObjC) on 10.6. There were fixes needed for 2.6 to do that and those will not be backported to python.org's 2.5 which is no longer maintained except for critical security patches and was last released before 10.6 was released. Perhaps Enthought has done the backporting and testing. There is also a mailing list for questions about PyObjC itself: http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.pyobjc.devel -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
