In /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.12/lib/python3.12/site-packages I see several directories with names that start with pyobjc_framework_. I don't see any such directory with Quartz in its name. Should I? Is there such a directory on macOS 14 or older when py312-pyobjc is installed?

Hm ok, I didn’t expect that.

I’ve attached the output of ‘sudo port install -d py312-pyobjc’ to https://trac.macports.org/ticket/71103. I see a bunch of files with Quartz in their name getting installed, but I don’t know if this means that the Quartz module is getting successfully installed or not.

These are the files installed by py312-pyobjc with quartz in their name:

These mostly look like documentation and examples. Do people on older macOS versions have more Quartz-related files installed by py312-pyobjc?
