Hi Dick and Kallisthène,

That "reliable source" would be me.

For IDL 8.6 we have streamlined the Python bridge installation by adding a "setup.py" script that you can run. This will set up the Python path so you don't have to set it, and on the Mac, it will also eliminate the need to set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Unfortunately, given all of the different Python flavors, it is still true that you *may* need to set PYTHONHOME on different machines and different Python distributions. That's just the nature of the python beast.

Also for IDL 8.6 we have added support for Python 3.5.

We're hoping to release within a "few" weeks, but no firm date yet.

Cheers,
Chris
