[Pythonmac-SIG] py2app DistUtilsPlatformError[Sec=Unclassified]

[mathew oakes]

Working now!

I upgraded py2app, macholib, modulegraph and altgraph to svn versions
(although I found it hard to get the correct svn links...
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/pythonmac-sig/2008-July/020251.html)

pyconfig issues are then dealt with correctly.

Macports py2app is 0.36, and there is a py2app-devel at 0.42 which
requires svn access and I'm behind a firewall that blocks that.

Cairo appears to be only available via macports on mac, and I'm not
thorough enough to mix bits of different python distributions, so must
do everything through one.

I had a redundant import from wx.lib.cairo -- (was trying to display
generated svg files in a wx window. There were no simple recipes to be
found and couldn't justify the time involved when firefox or inkscape
can fulfil the function.)

Without that import, everything is fine.
