Not on OSX, I've switched to Ubuntu 10.04, which I have installed on my 
linode and also now dual-booting on my macbook. The CKAN install 
instructions worked almost flawlessly for me on Ubuntu 10.04, except for 
a small issue with webob which I previously opened a ticket about 
(http://trac.ckan.org/ticket/1395).

Unfortunately my OSX is on loan from my other employer, I don't have 
access to the install disc, so I can't do clean installs to test things 
properly.
