New submission from Ned Deily <n...@acm.org>: 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. ---------- assignee: ronaldoussoren components: Installation, Macintosh messages: 110465 nosy: ned.deily, ronaldoussoren priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: python 2.7 OS X installer no longer installs /usr/local/bin symlinks by default versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9275> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
