[IPython-user] Non-system, dtraced python

[David Cournapeau]

Hi,

    Since there is (was ?) a problem with system python (dtrace but
incompatible libreadline) vs python.org python (no dtrace), I thought
ipython users may be interested in a patch I have extracted from apple
sources to build a dtrace python yourself:

http://www.ar.media.kyoto-u.ac.jp/members/david/archives/wordpress/dtrace-2.5.2-2.patch

More info + a built binary similar to python.org built can be found here:

The code in the patch is just a subset of apple patches, e.g. no code is
mine,

cheers,

David
