Hi Steve, Turns out this machine had that download of Python 2.5.2 installed locally for testing some other apps. Python 2.3 is the default system install.
So I decided to try to install wxPython from wxpython.org in that local Python 2.5.2 install just to see if I might get lucky before reverting the machine back to the default system Python 2.3 (which indeed does have wx installed as you indicate). Fortunately, I did get lucky and Plone installed just fine, running on it's own copy of Python 2.4 after that of course. I apologize for not checking this out more fully before posting. But I guess at least now we have another data point showing just how robust the Plone Mac installer is. I complement you on that good work. Thanks very much. ________________________________ From: Steve McMahon (via Nabble) <ml-user+33812-899966...@n2.nabble.com> To: zif <ziffe...@yahoo.com> Sent: Sunday, July 12, 2009 3:38:08 PM Subject: Re: [Setup] Problem with Plone OS X installer on OS X 10.4.11 I'm away from my office, and don't have access to a 10.4 machine at the moment. But, the 10.4 machines I've tested with in the past all have wx in the library for the included Python. http://www.python.org/download/mac/ might be a source for a build that should have wx.
