I just downloaded the Chandler_osx_0.7alpha3-rc1.dmg, installed it on my intel mac and ran it.

It ran under Rosetta and the python process shows up in the "Kind" column in Activity Viewer as PowerPC so it is the PPC build running.

When I displayed the About Box my new platform string was showing as Intel - so it appears that the Python platform.processer() routine is talking directly to the hardware.

After about a minute Chandler just disappeared.

I will work on solving the processor detection issue so that the Chandler startup code can detect the PPC on Intel situation.

Hi Grant:

Shouldn't Mac's Rosetta emulator run PPC binaries on the Intel machines?

Yes, it should. My understanding is there is some bug where a PPC instruction used by PyLucene isn't implemented in Rosetta. So, you can launch the app just fine, but as soon as indexing fires up (e.g. you create a new event) the app crashes. (In 0.6.x, this doesn't happen b/c indexing isn't enabled).

Anyway, Mitch has seen this with the intel build, so I'm going to give it a whirl on my intel Mac Mini here at home and see what I can find.

I wasn't able to reproduce on the Mac Mini here @ home, with either RC1 or with the checkpoint build in the bug.
