Is Panda3D-1.7.0.dmg expected to work on OSX 10.4.11? I think I should find out before I spend much more time debugging it 
panda3d.org/manual/index.php … ted_on_OSX suggests I should be able to run ppython after installing 1.7.0, but I can’t:
$ cd /Developer/Examples/Panda3D/Asteroids/
$ ppython Tut-Asteroids.py
-bash: ppython: command not found
$Turns out ppython is a broken symlink:
$ ls -l /usr/bin/ppython
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 99 Nov 7 09:17 /usr/bin/ppython -> /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/[b]2.5[/b]/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python
$ ls /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/
[b]2.3[/b]/ Current
$I tried running python2.5 directly:
$ python2.5 ./Tut-Asteroids.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./Tut-Asteroids.py", line 13, in <module>
import direct.directbase.DirectStart
ImportError: No module named direct.directbase.DirectStartOk, /Developer/Panda3D/lib was not added to my PYTHONPATH
$ PYTHONPATH=/Developer/Panda3D/lib python2.3 ./Tut-Asteroids.py
DirectStart: Starting the game.

Expected in: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylibI tried python2.3 (thinking maybe it was because I wasn’t using the default system python). Same error.
Is 10.4 just too old?
