<html><body style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">Thanks David. As you suggested, I did a "file" on a python executable, and found that while you are quite correct that python is compiled a 2 way binary on a client 10.5, it's already a 4 way binary on the new xserve I have running 10.5 even though it's version 2.5. I also discovered that pyobjc will not automatically build as a 4 way bin against a 4 way build of python, and if you force it to, (by re-issuing a gcc command adding arch flags for 64 bit ppc and intel) it will complain about a missing architecture in *.o file.<div><br></div><div>I'll try doing a python 2.6 build next, and go from there. </div><div><br></div><div>Geert</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div><div>On 14/09/2009, at 12:00 PM, <a href="mailto:pythonmac-sig-request@python.org">pythonmac-sig-request@python.org</a> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"
