Darwin (Not Python, yet...) [OT]

[Steven D. Majewski]

[1] un unzip command for Darwin is available in the zlib distribution
 in the contrib/minizip directory. Downloaded the sources from
 the Darwin web page ... got some build errors after configure and make ...
 got a more recent version via CVS -- that built with no problems -- 
 had to add "-DHAVE_UNISTD_H -DUSE-MMAP -Dunix" to the makefile CFLAGS
 to compile contrib/minizip (still got an error, but after building 
 miniunz, which was the target I needed. 

[2] unziped the MacOSX python.1.5.2 -- import test.testall seemed to work. 
    'make test' and 'make install' successful. 


[3] Need to compare this distribution with the original  -- supposedly
  only the Mmakefiles have been changed -- and look at the shared library
  build problems. 


Tcl (but not Tk) and Perl already come installed with Darwin -- it would
be nice to get Python packaged in there!
