I currently use a Framework of 2.6.2 for my Python work but I always see a
lot of posts about using Fink or MacPorts builds.
Could anyone shed some light on why they use these rather than a Framework?
Advantages/disadvantages?
Thanks,
Dan

Hi !
Seems to me there are a lot of python packages that are available
through the MacPorts. In the built-in framework, there are only a few
basic packages. Fink gives the same benefits than MacPorts, but there
might be fewer packages available though it than through MacPorts.
That's why I use
I'm not sure I understand what you mean.
I can certainly add any packages I like to my Framework build so I don't
think availability of packages is a concern.
Unless I'm misinterpreting the term packages?

That makes a great deal of sense. I tried to mess with pygame at one
time, but as you stated, it was such a pain to build I gave up.

My experience shows me that using fink or macports with python framework
create problems with version mismatches and library duplication. So now, I
only use the framework because i want to learn. With a little patience and
trying a lot (with the help of google), I gradually install what I want,

Thanks but I do not want MacPorts or fink, I want to do it myself with only

Python comes pre-installed on Mac OS X, but due to Apple's release
cycle, it's often one or even two years old. The overwhelming
recommendation of the MacPython community is to upgrade your
Python by downloading and installing a newer version
