Add use_weakref option to functools.lru_cache The use_weakref option makes lru_cache create weak references to the function arguments when creating the cache key, which prevents them from staying in the memory forever even after all other references to them are gone. This is a proof of concept for http://bugs.python.org/issue19859

\f0\fs24 \cf0 This package will install 
\b Python $FULL_VERSION
\b0  for 
\b Mac OS X $MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET
\b0 .\
\

\b Python for Mac OS X
\b0  consists of the Python programming language interpreter, plus a set of programs to allow easy access to it for Mac OS X users including an integrated development environment 
\b IDLE
\b0  and a set of pre-built extension modules that open up specific Macintosh technologies to Python programs.\
\

\b NEW for Python 3.4: 
\b0 This package now updates your shell profile by default to make $FULL_VERSION the default Python 3 version.  This version can co-exist with other installed versions of Python 3 and Python 2.  This package also installs a version of 
\f1 pip
\f0 , the recommended tool for installing and managing Python packages.   Type\
\
	
\f1 pip3.4 --help
\f0 \
\
for an overview.  See the ReadMe file and the Python documentation for more information.\
\

\b IMPORTANT:
\b0  
\b IDLE
\b0  and other programs using the 
\b tkinter
\b0  graphical user interface toolkit require specific versions of the 
\b Tcl/Tk
\b0  platform independent windowing toolkit.  Visit {\field{\*\fldinst{HYPERLINK "http://www.python.org/download/mac/tcltk/"}}{\fldrslt http://www.python.org/download/mac/tcltk/}} for current information on supported and recommended versions of Tcl/Tk for this version of Python and Mac OS X.}
