I've tried to install skencil on a new mac,
but it is segfaulting with no error message.
I ran a trace on the process (I can send to
anyone interested), and I think the problem
is that skencil is trying to use the
macintosh installed python, rather than the
one I installed with the necessary extras for
skencil. These are the lines in the trace
that make me think this:
1438 env NAMI "/Users/ccarter/bin/python"
1438 env RET execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory
1438 env CALL execve(0xbffff46c,0xbffff9c4,0xbffff9d0)
1438 env NAMI "/sw/local/bin/python" 1438 env RET execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory
...etc until...
1438 env NAMI "/usr/bin/python"
1438 env NAMI "/usr/lib/dyld"
1438 python RET execve 0
1438 python CALL getpid
----however, /usr/bin/python/ is a link to my fink-installed python.---
----but, later, I am getting calls in the trace like:------
1438 python CALL open(0x1378,0,0)
1438 python NAMI "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/Python"
1438 python RET open 3
1438 python CALL fstat(0x3,0xbfffe7d8)
----which are the libraries for the macintosh native version
----the segfault appears to occur while the .so is being read:---
1438 python NAMI "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/python2.3/lib-dynload/_locale.so"
I don't know what to try next.
Thanks for any help, Craig
