I realize that, but I have an application that is linked with MacPython
2.2. I can't just drop 2.4 in.
Is this an application that you've written? If so, then I realize that
you can't just drop 2.4 in painlessly, but you really should consider
upgrading your software to use a newer Python. No one is going to
support MacPython 2.2.
Yes, this is an app I have written. I could take the time to rebuild it
with the latest Python, yes.
However, the simpler solution seemed to be to try to figure out why it
won't reconfigure itself. I have OS X 10.3.8 and a clean install works
perfectly fine. Surely someone somewhere has used MacPython 2.2 on OS X
10.3.8 and heard of a similar issue, with ConfigurePythonCarbon not
working after preferences were destroyed.
This is why I asked here.
He claims the only thing that has changed is his preferences were wiped
out. There must be some solution for what is probably a not too uncommon
problem.
It *is* uncommon. Judging from the traffic on the Pythonmac-SIG,
virtually no one is using MacPython 2.2 anymore. You can ask for help on
there, but I don't think you'll fare any better.
Perhaps I am the only developer with a legacy application he's trying to
support. But I doubt it.
