Re: [Visualpython-users] Adding Visual to another Python install

Hi, last spring I was in a similar situation and I wrote a portfile for visual myself, which I then submitted to the macports maintainers for inclusion in the official repository. It was rejected because of something unorthodox in it that the reviewer pointed out, and back then I did not really have time to fix this problem. However, it does work, but for a number of reasons only with python26 @2.6.4 (basically because the boost libraries were compiled against this version, and I did not recompile them for 2.6.6). Since I noticed that a port for py27-numpy appeared, I might get a shot at reworking the portfile so as to work with python27. For the moment, you might want to take a look at www.mmmi.sdu.dk/~mirko/macports/python/py26-visual.tgz, or directly add http://www.mmmi.sdu.dk/macports/ to your /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf. bye, Mirko Bordignon On Mon, Sep 6, 2010 at 7:23 PM, Alex Edelman <ale...@gm...> wrote: > Thanks for the suggestions, all. > > As far as I know, Macports doesn't have a version of visual - I gather > from various trac comments that there was a lack of interest.
