[visionegg] Re: Clues to error in ConfigParser.py?

Thanks Andrew, for the help!

I'm still not sure what the real problem was, but the main difference
between a Mac that worked and one that didn't work was that the broken one
had Xcode 1.5, while the other had 2.1. We upgraded the 1.5 to 2.2, and the
experiment worked.

We were also having trouble getting the pythong wxWindows module installed
(installer was failing), and this upgrade fixed that too.

We still need to test on a machine that has *never* had Xcode installed on
it... the hope is that the application bundle for our experiment will run on
a clean machine.

It's all creepy and strange, and I wish I knew exactly what happened. I hope
noone else ever runs into this problem.

Thanks again,

Simeon
