This installs a complete distribution set in /tmp/pythondist: in a framework
build all other pathnames are computed from the framework pathname.
Optionally you may want to include the full documentation in the binary installer.
To this end, execute the following commands:
python.exe ../Mac/OSX/setupDocs.py build
python.exe ../Mac/OSX/setupDocs.py install \
--prefix=/tmp/python/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current
Note that the unix tools in /tmp/pythondist are wrong, these have to be
removed, and the installer post-install script should recreate them on the
target system. Also, the .pyc and .pyo files need to be removed:
rm -rf /tmp/pythondist/usr
python.exe ../Mac/script/zappycfiles.py /tmp/pythondist
TBD: find out how to make a .pkg from here.
Finally, create the .pkg file with a commandline like
python ../Mac/scripts/buildpkg.py \
--Title=MacPython-X \
--Version=2.3a0 \
--Description="Python for Mac OS X, framework based" \
/tmp/pythondist
This creates a MacPython-X.pkg in the current directory.
TBD: documentation.
TBD: provide postinstall scripts to precompile .pyc/.pyo files, and to recreate
the unix programs.
7. Odds and ends.
