That behavior of the OS X installer is by design. Currently, the "Current" link is only set for Python 2 installations, not Python 3 ones. While that may have made sense in the early days of Python 3 (assuming there would be mixed installations of both Python 3 and Python 2 to the same framework), that is probably no longer a good idea. Considering the difference between Python 2 and 3 at the API level and that one of the reasons for installing as a framework should be to simplify linking with Python libraries, I've been thinking that it might be a good idea to have Python 3 install in its own framework, say Python3. Or some other arrangement. As it stands today, 'cc ... -framework Python ...' isn't usable for Python 3 out of the box. |
