[Pythonmac-SIG] Building redistributable binaries with Xcode 4.4+

2013-10-24 Thread Andrew Barnert
There's a related issue, using the 10.6 SDK. This one is over a year old, but as far as I know still has no solution. Xcode 4.4+ have no 10.6 SDK. This doesn't actually stop you from building extensions; they just falls back to building for your machine when it can't find the SDK. But that mean

[Pythonmac-SIG] Building extension modules with Xcode 5

If you use a binary installer of Python 2.7.5, 3.3.2, or 3.4.0a4 from python.org on either 10.8 or 10.9, and you have Xcode 5, you can't build any C extension modules, because you don't have a compiler named "gcc-4.2". What should users be doing until this is fixed? The workaround that everyone

[Pythonmac-SIG] Two appscript problems, plus a stupid question

If this list is the wrong place, I apologize; just let me know and I'll ask in the right place. Otherwise: Now that I can use appscript with Python 2.4 on my Intel box, I've been going back over some of my iTunes-controlling scripts, and I've run into two problems and one stupid question. First,

It might be worth putting up something visible anyway. Right now, if you have an Intel Mac, you don't want to/know how to compile Python yourself, and you don't search the archives of this list, your only choices are ActiveState, Darwinports (non-framework, and other issues), or Fink (completely

I'm guessing these answers are all out there somewhere, but I can't find them. So I apologize if I'm being stupid, but: First, what's up with ctypes and other things that need libffi? They complain that it hasn't been ported to darwin x86 and punt. The latest information I could find was a blog at
