Hello, Platform: Mac OS X 10.4
I'm trying to install the Tk.framework to a directory other than /Library/Frameworks or /System/Library/Frameworks or ~/Library/Frameworks . I'm wanting to do this so I can create Mac packages with a custom build of Python, Tkinter and some additional modules that can be installed in a completely self contained custom directory. I don't want Tk.framework to be installed to the system directories because it may inadvertently clobber a users Tk.framework ;-). Here is what I have done 1) Built tcl with framework enabled and custom prefix. Then I changed the path the framework was to be installed to in the Makefile (namely /opt/<somename>/Library/Frameworks) 2) I then repeated the above for tk 3) I configured python with a custom prefix, then I edited setup.py and added to the beginning of the list variable "framework_dirs" the path to my tk and tcl frameworks (/opt/<somename>/Library/Frameworks) I than ran make and make install After testing this I noticed that it was still linking to the MAC OS default Tk.framework in /System/Library/Frameworks not my newly installed framework? Sorry for the long-windedness I wanted to make it clear what I have done and my end goal.
