For 2.7, the set of default installed packages for the OS installer was changed for some reason to no longer select the "UNIX command-line tools" package by default so the traditional symlinks in /usr/local/bin are not being created by default. This is a change in behavior from previous installers and the installer README files were not updated to reflect this change. Users are confused by this, see for example: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3266005/why-arent-the-python-2-7-command-line-tools-located-in-usr-local-bin-on-mac-o/ Suggest reverting the change in behavior so that the symlinks are again installed by default. | ||
