![]() These are usually the only 3rd-party Python packages I install in the system Python’s site-packages folder. If pip is not installed - sudo easy_install pip Next, I installed (or update) pip, virtualenv, and virtualenvwrapper in my Mac’s default Python (2.7.10 on Mac Capitain 11) via easy_install (or pip itself). Now lets check which is the python we have: As such, I don’t need Macports taking up additional hard drive space and potentially causing conflicts with Homebrew’s packages. Homebrew has fairly up-to-date versions all of the Unix packages I use on a daily basis, including git, subversion, bash_completion, Python, Qt, PyQt, and their supporting libraries. The first thing to do is uninstall Macports if present. So for me, an easier install with less gunk on my hard drive is a fair trade for losing the latest updates to Python 2.4, 2.5, and 2.6. ![]() Homebrew seems to install less dependencies than Macports or Fink.Īlso, most of my Python development has settled on Python 2.7 and occasionally Python 3 for tasks that don’t require external libraries that only run on Python 2.x. Here we will use Homebrew as my package manager for Unix utilities on OSX.
