Subject: Python 2.3 dependency? Can't start MacVim
When I just click the .app file, the app just bombs on me. I tried the
command line version and got the following.

lc278:MacVim-7_2-stable-1_2 laran$ ./mvim
dyld: Library not loaded: /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/
Versions/2.3/Python
  Referenced from: /Users/laran/Downloads/MacVim-7_2-stable-1_2/
MacVim.app/Contents/MacOS/Vim
  Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap
lc278:MacVim-7_2-stable-1_2 laran$

How can I fix this?

It seems you are missing Python 2.3 which is supposed to come with
every Mac running OS X 10.4 or later (MacVim requires at least 10.4).
Did you delete by any chance (I can't think of any other possibility)?

You have two options:

1. Put Python 2.3 back into /System/Library/Frameworks/

2. Compile your own MacVim binary.  This should be straightforward if
you make sure to follow the instructions [1] carefully (pass at least
"--enable-gui=macvim --with-features=huge --enable-pythoninterp" to
configure if you want Python support).

I don't think it's deleted, just in a different place:

lc278:Http laran$ ls /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/
Headers  Versions
lc278:Http laran$ ls /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/
2.3 2.5

Also, the --enable-python-interp option doesn't show when doing
./configure --help.

Never mind. I didn't scroll up far enough to see all the configure options.

This is where I hate being a C noob. Can you tell me what's needed to
fix this error during make?

lc278:vim7 laran$ make
Starting make in the src directory.
If there are problems, cd to the src directory and run make there
cd src && make first

2009/7/2 Laran Evans:

Did you follow the build instructions to the letter?  It seems you are
running "make" from the vim7/ dir instead of vim7/src.  Please make
sure you _very_ carefully follow the build instructions -- if you do
nothing should go wrong.

Also, there is something strange about your Python.framework.  This is
how it should look:

$ ls -l /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3
total 3896
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel     1499 Jan 14  2008 CodeResources
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel       13 Mar  3  2008 Extras -> ../2.4/Extras
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  1984208 Jan 14  2008 Python
drwxr-xr-x  5 root  wheel      170 Jan 14  2008 Resources
drwxr-xr-x  3 root  wheel      102 Jan 14  2008 lib

I'm afraid I can't answer why yours look different or how to fix it though. :(

Björn
