[Pythonmac-SIG] SciPy install on Tiger with Python 2.4.1 framework

[Samuel M. Smith]

Maybe I am being stupid but I tried to install scipy on 10.4.2 using  
Bob Ippolito's Framework python 2.4.1
and following the directions on the scipy website for os x http:// 
www.scipy.org/Members/fonnesbeck/osx_build.txt/

I first installed python 2.4.1 and several of the packages from Bob's  
site
http://undefined.org/python/#python
and from the python packages
http://pythonmac.org/packages/

I only installed packages that said they were compatible with Tiger  
and 2.4.1

I changed my PATH shell variable to
 >echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin

so that python from the command line  runs python 2.4.1

Installing
Numeric 23.7,
numarry 1.1.1
g77 3.4,
fftw 2.15,
f2py 2.45,
aquaterm 1.0b2
gnuplot 4.0

all went smoothly
The ploblem occurred with
scipy 0.3.2

The setup instructions say one might need to remove
if sys.platform == 'darwin':
   opt.append('cc_dynamic')

from the file gnufcompiler.py

prior to running python setup.py build

However that code snippet doesn't exist in the version of  
gnufcompiler.py in scipy complete 0.3.2.
The closest I could find was the following


if sys.platform=='darwin':
     if os.path.realpath(sys.executable).startswith('/System'):
         # This is when Python is from Apple framework
         opt.extend(["-Wl,-framework","-Wl,Python"])
     #else we are running in Fink python.
     opt.extend(["-lcc_dynamic","-bundle"])
else:
     opt.append("-shared")

Which looked like to me that someone had already accounted for the  
framework build so I didn't make any changes
to setup.py


Unfortunately setup.py build exits with the following error

Anyone have any idea what the problem is.
