PSPP-BUG: PSPP for Mac: crashing at startup after MacPorts-Installation

[Jeremy Lavergne]

Hi Thomas,

Do you know which X server you’re running? This would be included in X11.bin’s 
crash log, inside ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter. If you’re running the 
Apple-provided X11 server it should look like this in the log:
X.Org X Server 1.4.2-apple33 Build Date: 20090617

If this is the case, likely a newer X server is needed. I’m building the one in 
MacPorts to see if it resolves the crash. Likely, the current graphics 
libraries are no longer compatible with the old X server and since Apple no 
longer supports 10.5’s X11 we get to install a different X server.

Please write back letting us know which X server did crash, and I’ll followup 
if the newer X server fixes the crash.

PS: You’ve installed PSPP from both MacPorts and my site. My installers go into 
/opt/pspp while MacPorts installs to /opt/local. You’ll want to make sure you 
keep them both updated and know which one you’re running, or remove one.
