Fix broken python on Mac OS X version 10.2
sorry for the crossposting, here's a little heads-up for the mac OS X crowd: upon upgrading to 10.2 (jaguar) you will most likely find that your python binary (along with most other self-compiled software) is broken. in the case of python a simple re-build (if you compiled from source, that is) fixes this. i added explicit instructions to the "Zope and Python on Mac OS X" HowTo at http://www.zope.org/Members/jens/docs/zope_osx i highly recommend re-building zope after that as well. jens

I think the basic cause of this is that 10.2 upgraded gcc, and that's what breaks self-compiled binaries. -Barry
well, the basic cause is worse than that: they moved symbols around between system libraries. jens On Monday, Aug 26, 2002, at 12:11 US/Eastern, Barry A. Warsaw wrote:

But nicely, they include Python (2.2, not even 2.2.1) on the Developer Tools CD. Finally. -- Jeffrey P Shell www.cuemedia.com
... which doesn't help people trying to run a current zope source release all that much... jens On Monday, Aug 26, 2002, at 17:13 US/Eastern, Jeffrey P Shell wrote:
