anyone had any success with distutils on MAc OS 9? I'm using macpython 2.2.2 with code warrior 8.02 and am not getting past the mcp build stage. Also I'm getting a locked machine after the failure for some reason. Is it just me or have others seen problems? -- Robin Becker

What do you mean by "not getting past the build stage"? Do you get errors, or do things simply stop? And when the machine locks up, can you get it going again with command-.? There is a problem with distutils when running MacPython 2.2.2 on OSX: it can't find one of its include directories. Thre's an SF bug report filed for this (740424). -- Jack Jansen, <Jack.Jansen@cwi.nl>, http://www.cwi.nl/~jack If I can't dance I don't want to be part of your revolution -- Emma Goldman

In Mac OS 9 at least once the machine locked and the python instances was unkillable. Interestingly after the reboot we tried again and although the build didn't continue we at least got a built .mcp which was where the distutils build broke down.
we're just trying out OS X now. Someone tells me I can use GCC derived tools and expertise :)

If you use a unix-based Python (which means Apple-installed /usr/bin/python 2.2, or MacPython-2.3, or any python you built from source yourself) then you are indeed talking standard Unix stuff and there's no problem. If you for some reason need to use MacPython 2.2.X or MacPython-OS9 2.3 then you need CodeWarrior and you will run into bug 740424. But I'm trying to fix it before 2.2.3 comes out. -- - Jack Jansen <Jack.Jansen@oratrix.com> http://www.cwi.nl/~jack - - If I can't dance I don't want to be part of your revolution -- Emma Goldman -
