Log is attached. I couldn't find another ticket reporting this error. Let me know if you need more info, or would like me to try something on my machine. Thanks.

Build log for py26-pyobjc

[kevin@…]

Thanks for routing/tweaking my ticket. I'm new here, so I can't tell if this ticket's been forgotten about (it's been six days), or someone's working on it and they'll back to me. Let me know.

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

If anyone supplies a patch I'll apply it.

Replying to jmr@…:

If anyone supplies a patch I'll apply it.

Thanks... is anyone inclined to supply a patch? I mean, I obviously don't know how to fix this, and you're waiting for someone else to write a patch. Does anyone else know about this issue? (I don't see anyone cc'd.) If not, we could be waiting a long time for a fix.

Cc Me!

Cc Me!

Maybe try upstream ​http://pyobjc.sourceforge.net/ ? Just realised this is 10.4 only, so I'm not very interested in it, but I don't know how to remove myself from the cc list...

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

The CcMe button will also un-cc you. This has been ​reported upstream BTW.

[jmroot (Joshua Root)]

Closing: no patch, unsupported platform.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Per the upstream bug report, Tiger is not supported. I marked the ports as requiring Leopard or newer in r99552.
