[GRASS-user] Re: Georectify problem

Wed Dec 2 12:11:44 EST 2009

If you have a second python and it is in your python path, you'll have  
trouble. Do you know what the Macports "python_select" script does?

You really don't need to install any extra Python because your Mac  
already comes with Python 2.6, the most up-to-date of the 2.x series.  
It should not be necessary to run anything downloaded from MacPorts as  
any Python app should use the system Python unless it needs an earlier  
version. If MacPorts is installing 2.3 or 2.4 this could be a pretty  
big headache since GRASS requires at least 2.4 and possibly 2.5 or  
above to run its wxPython GUI (we've tried not to break 2.4  
compatibility but I haven't tested it). I've heard of other people  
having trouble with conflicts from MacPorts. I uses to use Fink but  
ran into some of the same issues. And by now I don't really need it  
since many applications are now available on the Mac in a more native  
way. You might try getting rid of the MacPorts Python and see if GRASS  
run--and if MacPorts Python apps still run.
