The Snow Leopard installers I am building do not include the Qt
framework itself, which you have to download and install separately
since it's rather large, but they do include the compiled PyQt framework
as well as the qbzr and explorer plugins.

Could you please try getting the branch
lp:~doxxx/+junk/SnowLeopard-package and then do the following:

(first install pyrex for the version of python you're using)
python fetch-externals.py -c config -p
python build.py -d -c config --pmdoc Bazaar-2.0.pmdoc

I honestly don't know if Mac OS X will install in a virtual machine.
I've never tried though. I have install disks for 10.5 and 10.4, so if
somebody could figure out how to do it in a virtual machine, I could
probably do it myself. My time is somewhat limited.

On a sidenote, would people prefer that we remove the main bazaar
mailing list from this conversation and continue only bzr-mac?

Ciao,
Gordon
