Hi All, I'm attempting a framework install of python 2.6.6 from source, on an intel mac running osx 10.6.4. At the end of the install the following errors occur. install: mkdir /usr/local/bin: Permission denied make[1]: *** [altinstallunixtools] Error 71 make: *** [frameworkaltinstallunixtools]

I just did 'make install' because according to the osx section of the README: On a clean OSX /usr/local does not exist. Do a sudo mkdir -m 775 /usr/local before you do a make install. It is probably not a good idea to do sudo make install which installs everything
