I should have added: If you're happy with 32-bit Python on Snow Leopard and have no need to build from source, just do as Chris recommended earlier: Use Python.org's installer. It is built on an earlier OS than SL and links against Apple's Tcl/Tk 8.4, so when you install it on SL, it finds the 8.4 version that Apple includes in SL for backward compatibility. -Tom ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/ _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/Pythonmac-SIG
