I've has similar problems installing turbogears (1.0.4.4) on a new intel imac.
Assuming you already have XCode installed, this way worked for me: 1) Do a clean install of python from the standard installer downloaded from www.python.org. It installs python into /Library/Frameworks/... instead of /System. You will just ignore the default installations, and your shell commands will be /usr/local/bin instead of /usr/bin. 2) Install setuptools from http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall . 3) The python installer tgsetup.py should now run no problem. 4) You will need to manually install SQLObject after that, using easy_install. It will install the latest version 0.10.2, which may require you to edit your model.py. Just change the top lines to: import pkg_resources pkg_resources.require("SQLObject>=0.8,<=0.10.2") No problems so far with this version. 5) Install anything else you need such as the Python Image Library. -------------------- One big problem I found was with cherrypy. Working on localhost all will look ok, but when you go live you may see some odd socket behavior, and large requests will become truncated. There are some differences in how sockets work on the mac (they need to be non-blocking). All the gory details are in the closed ticket http://www.cherrypy.org/ticket/598. The solution is to add the following line into the app.cfg config file: server.socket_timeout = None All's now working perfectly here. Good luck! Howard.
