3. Apple-installed Python's command line tools are symlinked from /usr/bin to /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework but the OSX installer for Python 2.4.1 places the commandline tools in /usr/local/bin and symlinked to /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework. So it seems to me that Python 2.4.1 (installed using OSX installer for Python 2.4.1) is not a precise replacement of Apple-installed Python...
Bingo. It's not intended to be one.
Hi Robert,
Once I've tried to install Python 2.4.1 through the installer Bob Ippolito built. I've already for Fink installed Python 2.3.5 in my system. So,
/usr/bin/python -> /sw/bin/python
and the newly installed Python 2.4.1 created /usr/local/bin/python -> /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/python
Does /usr/bin/python takes precedence over /usr/local/bin/python?
Somehow it rings an alarm in me...
