That's probably the best, as that's the upstream build system.

It does require that you bundle Python and GTK+ with your app,
but that only matters for distribution and not for development.

For the record, the URL is: http://live.gnome.org/GTK%2B/OSX

But when I packaged our app for the fourth* time, I wondered
why there were no binaries - so went ahead and did a fifth pkg.
