I'd rather not use Macports. Simply cause Macport replaces (installs another Apache in /opt/local/bin) the default installation of Apache. And that would mean having ports install/replace PHP too. I'd rather use the default installation included in Snow Leopard.
Been searching the net, and all I get is old instructions using Darwin Ports (older version of Macports) or instruction for Leopard (which hasn't panned out for me).
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks.
PS: By the way mod_python for 1.6 or 3.1 is fine.
fink is the alternative distribution to MacPorts. Given you're installing a module, it would most likely update your Apache instance as well.
Sounds like you'll probably need to build Apache (to get the header files/libraries you need to link to) and mod_python.
