| When I run the installer in python-2.5c2-macosx2006-09-12.dmg, it continues until the "GUI Applications" phase, during which it fails saying "There were errors installing the software. Please try installing again". (Which doesn't work.) I noticed that at the same moment it does this, Console.app's console.log window adds the following line: 2006-09-14 19:12:21.568 Installer[1884] Exception raised during posting of notification. Ignored. exception: Some files for PythonApplications-2.5 may not have been written correctly. (code 1) I've also determined that if I try installing again, but this time click Customize on the Installation Type screen, then uncheck "GUI Applications 2.1MB", the installation proceeds successfully. I'm running OS X 10.3.9 on PowerPC. |

| Logged In: YES user_id=580910 I had some problems with pax(1) when I created the installer, and specifically with the "MacPython 2.5" folder in /Applications which should have a custom icon. I'm going to rebuild the 2.5c2 installer tomorrow, but without a custom icon on the "MacPython 2.5" folder. Would you be available for testing? I have a 10.3.9 box, but didn't have this problem when I tested the installer there (earlier this week). |

| Logged In: YES user_id=580910 I've uploaded a new installer to http://homagepages.mac.com/ ronaldoussoren, its the file python-2.5c2-macosx2006-09-17.dmg. Could you please test if this fixes the installation problems for you? I'd really appricate if you could post the contents of the installer log if installation failed (in Installer.app use the menu File -> Show Log, then select 'Show Everything', save that file and add it to this bug). This version has two minor changes w.r.t. the previous one: 1) the application subpackage won't try to install a custom icon on the MacPython 2.5 folder. After reading some pages on the interweb I'm starting to believe that installing a custom icon will require a postinstall script and that's not something I want to add at this point of the release cycle (if ever). 2) the fixsystempython subpackage won't abort the installation when the system python's Makefile was patched by someone else. |

Are you sure you uploaded it? |

| Logged In: YES user_id=1598476 The new installer appears to have worked perfectly. (I have the installer log file if you still want it.) Thanks very much. Python 2.5 is quite exciting! |

| Logged In: YES user_id=580910 Thanks for testing this. I'm glad the new version of the installer works correctly. The changes were commited on the release25-maint branch in revision 51902 and to the trunk in revision 51903. |
