Installation of pyobjc is annoyinly hard at the moment. The current version of PyObjC is 2.3, <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyobjc>. A number of people have mentioned that installing this using "easy_install pyobjc" won't work. I tend to install manually (first install pyobjc-core, then install pyobjc-framework-Cocoa, then install the other framework wrappers you need) and haven't had time to look into this issue. The website is very much out of date. This is something I want to fix, but once again haven't had time to work on. I'm currently working on a new release, hopefully around the same time as OSX 10.8 gets released. My repository is at https://bitbucket.org/ronaldoussoren/pyobjc. My current goal is to get everything working correctly on the current OSX 10.8 beta (not just pyobjc, but also py2app). After that I'll work on the website, and hopefully I can finish all work before 10.8 is actually released.
