So i followed the Trouble-Shooting section in the README.pdf an executed Gretl manually via X11 xterm. Then this error-message appears: > > dyld: Library not loaded: @executable_path/../lib/libgmp.3.dylib > Referenced from: /Applications/Gretl.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gretl_x11 > Reason: no suitable image found.

Have you tried installing Gretl again? Delete your current Gretl.app from /Applications. Install again. Sometimes this appears to solve the problem.
