Ned Deily <n...@acm.org> added the comment: If a version of Python 3.2 has been previously installed, a subsequent re-install of Python 3.2 may fail attempting to install the Documentation package. On Mac OS X 10.6, the message reported by the installer is:
"The following installation step failed: run postflight script for Python Documentation. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance." Avoid the problem by dragging the folder /Library/Frameworks/Python/Versions/3.2/share to the Trash (you may be asked to enter an administrator password to do so) or, equivalently, run the following from a command line shell: sudo rm -rf /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.2/share Then re-run the installer to ensure that all installation steps have been completed. ---------- stage: -> needs patch title: Mac OS/X installer fails if documentation was previously installed. -> 3.2 Mac OS X installer may fail if documentation was previously installed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11268> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
