[Gretl-users] Using Gretl 1.6.5 on Mac OS Leopard

Dear All, Thank you for providing the image file for Gretl 1.6.5. However, when I load the application on Leopard, I receive the following error (with a crash): ======================= Process: gretl_x11 [62486] Path: /Applications/Utilities/Gretl.app/Contents/Resources/ bin/gretl_x11 Identifier: gretl_x11 Version: ??? (???) Code Type: PPC (Native) Parent Process: Gretl [62484] Date/Time: 2008-07-29 20:55:27.677 +0530 OS Version: Mac OS X 10.5.4 (9E17) Report Version: 6 Exception Type: EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP) Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000001, 0x000000008fe0105c Crashed Thread: 0 Dyld Error Message: Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib Referenced from: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXft.2.dylib Reason: Incompatible library version: libXft.2.dylib requires version 7.0.0 or later, but libiconv.2.dylib provides version 5.0.0 ================= I guess this has got to do with the compatibility issues between the libraries in Tiger and Leopard. I have Xcode installed and it has both directories for Tiger and Leopard under SDKs. I also ran otool on /usr/ lib/libiconv.2.dylib and here is the output: /usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib: /usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 7.0.0) /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 111.0.0) So I really do not see the issue, however Gretl does see an issue! :(. The otool output on the dylib under MacOS10.4u.sdk/usr/lib shows compatibility only with 5.0.0. However, Gretl seems to have a complaint with /usr/lib/libiconv.2.dylib. I am puzzled. Can someone please help? I would be really grateful! thank you very much. best regards Arun ========================= Arun Tangirala Assistant Professor Department of Chemical Engineering IIT Madras, Chennai 600036 Ph: 91-44-22574181 Fax: 91-44-22574152 =========================
