I also run Gretl on Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.7 Normally I use
my own build of Gretl. I first ran my own build and quit Gretl.
Then downloaded Allin's build and installed it (by dragging to
/Applications). Started Gretl without problems. Quit Gretl and
quit X11.
I tried to reinstall my own build and then got the message you
have mentioned (some items are blocked). I tried several times
and kept getting the error message.
But the weird thing is you can delete Gretl.app from
/Applications without any error message. And then I installed my
own Gretl without any further error messages.
That matches my own (recent) experience with OS X, though I'm
pretty sure there was a time when didn't get that "items are
blocked" message.
I wouldn't be surprised if this is Finder getting confused about
something or other.
Yes, on the face of it, it looks as if the Finder is confused over
permissions.
