Ohh, that didn't even occur to me (given how late I was in upgrading
to 10.3, I thought I was trailing edge...): is this why PyGame doesn't
install?

"Problem with dependency: (WriteableBin): This package cannot be
installed automatically (no Download-URL field"
"Problem with dependency: (WriteableInclude): This package cannot be
installed automatically (no Download-URL field"

(This comes up because someone at EuroPython just asked if I had
pygame on my Mac... and I hadn't gotten around to seeing if this was
fixed... there were *lots* of cool pygame-based animated
presentations, so I'm going to try it, but it looks like I have to
build it myself, which some of the "framework issues" discussions have
caused me to fear :-)
