Frameworks (.framework) are Mac OS X Shared Libraries (not .dynlib (same 
as .so on linux)) that can include Cocoa specific things like .nib 
files. (RubyCocoa comes as framework). Maybe python includes a cocoa 
binding that comes as a framework or the python lib is a framework. 
(it's possible to compile c libs as frameworks too (SDL for example))

Mac OS X Installer packages are .pkg or .mpkg
