Ok, so what is basically going on here is that the package
maintainers for the various distributions may or may not have
compiled in the browser, depending on whether or not they wanted to
have the dependencies on tcl/tk or gtk.
So building it from source should solve the problem... I'll give it a
shot.
Also, on Mac OSX, I tried building from source and configure fails with:
configure: creating libtool
configure: error: "libffi has not been ported to i686-apple-
darwin8.7.1."
configure: error: /bin/sh './configure' failed for libffi
That is because this is an Intel Mac - the pyobjc folks do have a
libffi ported to the intel mac; is there a way to get the build to
use that instead of the included one?

Also, I am not familiar with Ubuntu. If they build from source,
do you have a log? In this case, also, you may want to check if
you have a tclConfig.sh or tkConfig.sh file. If they install a
binary, chances are that they do not provide the browser in their
package.

I assume it is a binary package. If it is not dependent on any of
tcl or tk, then again Ubuntu chose not to provide the browser in
their package. Otherwise please send the content of these .sh files.
Thanks,
