sys.exutable that isn't usuable on an #!-line. That results in generated
applets that don't actually work. Work around this problem by resetting
sys.executable.
* argvemulator.py didn't work on intel macs. This patch fixes this
(bug #1491468)
Found them using::
find . -name '*.py' | while read i ; do grep 'def[^(]*( ' $i /dev/null ; done
find . -name '*.py' | while read i ; do grep ' ):' $i /dev/null ; done
(I was doing this all over my own code anyway, because I'd been using spaces in
all defs, so I thought I'd make a run on the Python code as well. If you need
to do such fixes in your own code, you can use xx-rename or parenregu.el within
emacs.)
* Don't use xcodebuild for building PythonLauncher, but use a normal unix
makefile. This makes it a lot easier to use the same build flags as for the
rest of python (e.g. make a universal version of python launcher)
* Convert the mac makefile-s to makefile.in-s and use configure to set makefile
variables instead of forwarding them as command-line arguments
* Add a C version of pythonw, that we you can use '#!/usr/local/bin/pythonw'
* Build IDLE.app using bundlebuilder instead of BuildApplet, that will allow
easier modification of the bundle contents later on.
something (overridable through Install-command entry)
- Hidden status is now determined by flavor == hidden, not by
missing Download-URL. Hidden packages behave like installer packages.
- Made some error messages a bit more understandable.
Because there's new functionality the version has been upped to 0.5.
- using a different database for non-final releases should only be done
for X.Y.0. Non-final micro releases can use the default database just fine,
as they are required to be backward compatible.
- there were no accessor functions for the global per-database fields
- packages and their dependencies were installed in order in stead
of in reverse order.
donated by Kevin Ollivier. This is now the default downloader.
- Added a watcher mechanism, whereby downloaders and unpackers (and,
later builders) can give status feedback to the user. When running
pimp as a command line tool in verbose mode print this output.
- Try not only "darwin-7.X.Y" but also "darwin-7.X" and "darwin-7",
so far we've never had to create anew database for a minor release.
- Distinguish between the various different installs (user-installed
MacPython, apple-installed MacPython, other).
by request of Donovan Preston. In return, he promised to use this
to create a Python OSA component, which would turn Python
into a first-class OSA scripting language (like AppleScript itself).
