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.
Here are the steps you ned 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.
- When done the script will tell you where the DMG image is.
The script needs to be run on Mac OS X 10.4 with Xcode 2.2 or later and
the 10.4u SDK.
When all is done, announcements can be posted to at least the following
places:
- pythonmac-sig@python.org
- python-dev@python.org
- python-announce@python.org
- archivist@info-mac.org
