Installation on Macs
by Raymond Hettinger Aug. 15, 2012

Aug. 15, 2012

On Mountain Lion, the default security settings only allow installation of applications downloaded from the Mac App Stored and "identified developers". We need to either become an "identified developer" or include some instructions on how to change the security settings (System Preference -- General -- Unlock --Select the "Anywhere" radio button -- Install Python -- Restore the original settings -- and Relock). Changing the security settings isn't appealing because 1) it weakens the user's … [View More]security 2) it involves multiple steps and 3) the user will see an unsettling warnings along the way. Another unrelated issue is that the instructions for updating Tcl/Tk are problematic. In the past few months, I've witnessed hundreds of people unsuccessfully trying follow the instructions and having an immediate unpleasant out-of-the-box experience when IDLE crashes. I suggest that we stop being so indirect about the chain of footnotes and links leading to a Tcl/Tk download. I would like to see a direct Tcl/Tk updater link side-by-side with our Python installer link at http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7.3/ Someone did add a note the the IDLE startup screen to the effect of: "WARNING: The version of Tcl/Tk (8.5.9) in use may be unstable. Visit http://www.python.org/download/mac/tcltk/ for current information." In some ways this is progress. In others, it falls short. If IDLE crashes, you can't see the message. If you have installed the ActiveTCL 8.5.12 update, you still see the warning eventhough it isn't necessary. Also, I don't link that the referenced page is so complex and that it is full unsettling warnings, important notices, do-not-use advice, mentions of instability, etc. I would like to see our download page have something more simple, affirmative, positively worded and direct. For example: * Mac OS X 64-bit/32-bit Installer (3.2.3) for Mac OS X 10.6 and 10.7 [2] (sig). To run IDLE or Tkinter, you need to update Tcl/Tk to ActiveTcl 8.5.12 <http://www.activestate.com/activetcl/downloads> . That saves you from having to click a links down to a footnote at the bottom of the page <http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7.3/#id6 > that sends you to <http://www.python.org/download/mac/tcltk> which is another page full of tables, warnings,etc that leads you to the Apple 8.5.9 section <http://www.python.org/download/mac/tcltk/#apple-8-5-9> which is a dead-end because there are still known issues with 8.5.9, leaving you with the ActiveTCL section <http://www.python.org/download/mac/tcltk/#activetcl-8-5-12> which has a paragraph of text obscuring the link you actually needed: http://www.activestate.com/activetcl/downloads . I applaud that some effort was made to document a solution; however, in practice the daisy chain of footnotes, tables, and links has proven unworkable for most of the engineers I've been working with.

Hi, There seems to be a problem with PEPs build process again. As far as I see - PEP 362 and PEP 398 are out of sync with what is in the repo. Thanks, - Yury

AST optimizer implemented in Python
by Victor Stinner Aug. 14, 2012

Aug. 14, 2012

Hi, I started to implement an AST optimizer in Python. It's easy to create a new AST tree, so I'm surprised that I didn't find any existing project. https://bitbucket.org/haypo/misc/src/tip/python/ast_optimizer.py To test its peephole optimizations (by checking manually its final bytecode), I wrote a patch for Python to disable Python internal peephole optimizer (on bytecode): https://bitbucket.org/haypo/misc/src/tip/python/compile_disable_peephole.pa… -- There is BytecodeAssembler [1], … [View More]
