[Pyobjc-dev] Installing pyobjc?

[Mark S. <sie...@st...>]

I'm trying to install pyobjc in a custom python 2.7.3 build.  I see that "easy_install pyobjc", installs a bunch of stuff, but then says:

Running pyobjc-framework-SystemConfiguration-2.3/setup.py -q bdist_egg --dist-dir /var/folders/1z/7z0y590s66339qm1m1djyx4w0004jf/T/easy_install-nZl6LQ/pyobjc-framework-SystemConfiguration-2.3/egg-dist-tmp-jWDaaK
error: Could not find required distribution pyobjc-core

This is pyobjc 2.3, which is the default from pypi.  The web site at pyobjc.sourceforge.net says the latest is pyobjc 2.2, so this looks a bit odd.

I also found that pyobjc 2.2 does not install on Snow Leopard or Lion unless you set the environment variable MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.5 ; it is probably worth mentioning this on the web site.

So, my conclusion is:

- use pyobjc 2.2
- use MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.5

Does this seem reasonable, or am I missing something?
