[Pythonmac-SIG] OSX on intel, py2app 0.2 maint wxPython2.6.3.2rc3-universal10.4-py24.dmg .rsrc file missing

Hi Kevin and all,

I have been testing your wxPython2.6-osx-unicode-2.6.3.2rc3- 
universal10.4-py2.4.dmg version of wxpython with universal python2.4
with our BioImageXD python and VTK driven software.

Looking very good so far!

Now I am trying to use py2app 0.2maint svn version
to build the .app on intel core duo MacBook Pro.

However, there is a command in our code to make py2app look for a  
rsrc file for wxPython. This file is not present in your 2.6.3.2rc3- 
universal10.4-py2.4.dmg

DATA_FILES.append( ('../Frameworks', [
            '/usr/local/lib/wxPython-unicode-2.5.5.1/lib/ 
libwx_macud-2.5.5.rsrc',
             ]))

Do I still need this append ?

cheers

Dan
