FYI --
I am building the latest 10.5 SDK i386 arch using the gtk-osx-build-setup.sh
Ran into a problem installing phase 3 / 15 of the gtk-meta-os-bootstrap.
Making install in python
Making install in .
make[3]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'.
/bin/sh /Users/sbakhtiar/gtk/source/libxslt-1.1.26/install-sh -d /Library/Python/2.6/site-packages
/Users/sbakhtiar/.local/bin/install-check -m 0644 libxslt.py /Library/Python/2.6/site-packages
install: /Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/libxslt.py: Permission denied
make[3]: *** [install-data-local] Error 71
make[2]: *** [install-am] Error 2
make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
*** Error during phase install of libxslt: ########## Error running make install *** [3/15]
So, after having su'd over to the admin account and sudo su'd, I :
sh-3.2# cd /Library/Python/2.6/
sh-3.2# ls -l
total 0
drwxrwxr-x 3 root admin 102 Jul 9 2009 site-packages
sh-3.2# chmod o+w site-packages
sh-3.2# ls -l
total 0
drwxrwxrwx 3 root admin 102 Jul 9 2009 site-packages
<went back to original shell and finished he install>
sh-3.2# chmod o-w site-packages
sh-3.2#
The only important thing to note here is that I am now running as a standard network user on a 10.6.4 box (joined to the domain). I never ran into this problem before as I was the first local user of the machine (admin). This may be a good reason to try and keep things inside the installation directory somehow?
Some may not have admin access to the box,
