[Qgis-developer] Mac OS X 10.6, master version, sextante problem and solution (Python 2.6.x)

[Victor Olaya]

That sounds like OK to me, but I do not know the policy for adding new
libraries in QGIS, since I haven't added any new one (SEXTANTE just
uses the ones already included in QGIS). Alex might know more about
it. Anyway, if it can be included, I would prefer it, since that would
make it easier for all users to have a functional SEXTANTE without
problems

Regards
