[Pythonmac-SIG] Python for Tiger PPC I found your wonderful page at <http://pythonmac.org/packages/py25-fat/index.html> that has numpy and PIL for Tiger, which I can't find anywhere else, but I'm trying to run pymapper <http://pymapper.com>, which requires Python 2.6 or later (but not Python 3). Do these binaries exist anywhere? Or am I stuck trying to figure out how to build them? Thanks! Jim

As you've notices, that repository hasn't been maintained for years -- 
to bad.

However, one reason it hasn't is that many package maintainers are 
providing binaries for OS-X themselves. You should be able to get numpy 
from the numpy site.

As for PIL -- various folks have made OS-X binaries, and despite 
expressed interest, somehow they have never gotten put up on the PIL site.

Most recently Russel Owen (on this list) has built PIL binaries and 
posted them on a site of his -- it's not a very public site, but some 
googling (or searching this and/or the PIL list) should find it.
