Building a MacPython distribution ================================= The ``build-install.py`` script creates MacPython distributions, including sleepycat db4, sqlite3 and readline support. It builds a complete framework-based Python out-of-tree, installs it in a funny place with $DESTROOT, massages that installation to remove .pyc files and such, creates an Installer package from the installation plus other files in ``resources`` and ``scripts`` and placed that on a ``.dmg`` disk image. Here are the steps you ned to follow to build a MacPython installer: - Run ``./build-installer.py``. Optionally you can pass a number of arguments to specify locations of various files. Please see the top of ``build-installer.py`` for its usage. - When done the script will tell you where the DMG image is. The script needs to be run on Mac OS X 10.4 with Xcode 2.2 or later and the 10.4u SDK. When all is done, announcements can be posted to at least the following places: - pythonmac-sig@python.org - python-dev@python.org - python-announce@python.org - archivist@info-mac.org - adcnews@apple.com - news@macnn.com - http://www.macupdate.com - http://guide.apple.com/usindex.lasso - http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/submit - http://www.versiontracker.com/ (userid Jack.Jansen@oratrix.com) - http://www.macshareware.net (userid jackjansen) Also, check out Stephan Deibels http://pythonology.org/market contact list
