| How to make a Python-distribution. |
| ---------------------------------- |
| |
| These notes are mainly for myself, or for whoever tries to make a MacPython |
| distribution when I'm fed up with it. They were last updated for 2.1a2. |
| |
| - Increase fragment version number in PythonCore and PythonCoreCarbon. |
| the fragment number is Python's sys.hexversion, it should be set in the |
| "PEF" preferences. |
| - Increase version number in _versioncheck.py |
| - Build PythonStandSmall, run once in root folder |
| - Update Relnotes, readme's, Demo:build.html |
| - Make sure tkresources.rsrc is up-to-date |
| - fullbuild everything with increase-buildno |
| - Run configurepython |
| - set "no console" on all applets |
| - remove alis resource from all applets |
| - mkdistr binary.include |
| - mkdistr dev.include |
| - make distribution archive with Installer Vise |
| - test on virgin system. Make sure to test tkinter too. |
