Dear all,
I have OSX 10.6.7, XCode 4, and Python.org python 2.6.6 and 2.7.1, where
2.7 is 64-bit.
With 2.7, easy_install successfully compiles and installs the package,
both over the web and with an explicit download.
With 2.6, there seems to be a problem with attempting to compile the PPC
architecture, seen in this error.
Please just use "python setup.py install", easy_install is very unreliable.
/usr/libexec/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin10/4.0.1/as: assembler
(/usr/bin/../libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as or
/usr/bin/../local/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as) for architecture ppc not
installed
XCode 4 does not support PPC, use version 3.2. Then it should work as advertized.
Cheers,
Ralf
