[Pythonmac-SIG] pyobjc 2.0 with the python.org distribution?

[Dav Clark]

Reza,

Are you implying that you are able to build pyobjc 2.0 on python 2.5?   
No one I know is able to do this... it would be exceedingly useful to  
have instructions on how  to do this.  Even vague and cryptic hints  
would be appreciated!

I posted a good while ago about this, and occasionally take a crack at  
it to see if I've learned enough... but it always fails to build.

Add to this the fact that no one answered my question about potential  
problems of using PyObjC 1.4 on leopard.  So, my current strategy is  
to avoid any code that uses PyObjC (for example, this motivated my  
shift towards pyglet instead of pygame).

Cheers,
Dav
