[Qgis-developer] OSX package?

I have a few Python modules available on my site - including a few things that others have mentioned are needed by QGIS plugins.  There is a link on the QGIS download page in the optional list. (I haven't done matplotlib yet, but it's on my list)

Note: I don't think easy_install needs compilation, so you should be able to install easy_install without Xcode.  But that still doesn't help with python modules that need compilation.

FYI: gcc comes with Xcode, nothing to do with Macports.
