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. Prerequisites ------------- * A MacOS X 10.4 (or later) * XCode 2.2 (or later), with the universal SDK * No Fink (in ``/sw``) or DarwinPorts (in ``/opt/local``), those could interfere with the build. * The documentation for the release must be available on python.org because it is included in the installer. The Recipe ---------- Here are the steps you need 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. Running this script takes some time, I will not only build Python itself but also some 3th-party libraries that are needed for extensions. * When done the script will tell you where the DMG image is (by default somewhere in ``/tmp/_py``). Testing ------- The resulting binaries should work on MacOSX 10.3.9 or later. I usually run the installer on a 10.3.9, a 10.4.x PPC and a 10.4.x Intel system and then run the testsuite to make sure.
