Hi there,

I am trying to install readline and cx_Oracle on my Mac OSX 10.8.4. I've just installed python 2.7.3 standard in my $HOME dir and then I did:

export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH 
~/setuptools-0.7.7
python setup.py install --prefix=$HOME

which worked.

I tried to installed ipython 0.13.2 which seems to have worked but it fails to start because of readline.

error: Setup script exited with error: $MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET mismatch: now "10.3" but "10.4" during configure

How can solve this problem please?

Thanks in advance,
