Would anyone care to post step by step instructions for building a framework version of Python 2.4 that will peacefully cohabitate with the built in OS X Python 2.3.

Does it build out of the box from the source? Patch your config/Makefile of your existing Python 2.3.0 installation (see a recent email of mine on the subject) Fetch 2.4 sources From the 2.4 source directory do the following: env MACOSXDEPLOYMENTTARGET=10.3 ./configure --enable-framework make sudo make frameworkinstall You probably want to add /usr/local/bin early on in your path if you haven't already, you may want to delete /usr/local/bin/python if you want python 2.3 to be "the default", because there is also a symlink named python2.4 that you could use. -bob

Hi!

When I do this I get:

esac Traceback (most recent call last): File "./setup.py", line 1061, in ? class PyBuildInstallLib(install_lib): File "./setup.py", line 1067, in PyBuildInstallLib so_ext = sysconfig.get_config_var("SO") File "/Users/robert/Desktop/Python-2.4/Lib/distutils/sysconfig.py", line 509, in get_config_var return get_config_vars().get(name) File "/Users/robert/Desktop/Python-2.4/Lib/distutils/sysconfig.py", line 486, in get_config_vars func() File "/Users/robert/Desktop/Python-2.4/Lib/distutils/sysconfig.py", line 371, in _init_posix raise DistutilsPlatformError(my_msg) distutils.errors.DistutilsPlatformError: $MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET mismatch: now "" but "10.3" during configure make: *** [sharedmods] Error 1

Any suggestion?
