Here's what I can do: in building the bundle I can replace the helper apps (pg_dump, pg_dumpall, pg_restore) with symbolic links to the respective apps in the postgresql82 port, as those apps are sure to exist due to the dependency setting. I made that replacement manually, and now pgAdmin starts ok. I don't like to mess with the internals of an app, but I don't like crashing either:-) How does that sound? It is relatively easy to write, and easy to remove, if and when a solution is found to the problem.

Well that will work (and does make it sound like something is foobarred when we create the bundle), but what exactly are you trying to achieve?

I'm maintaining pgAdmin package in MacPorts, packaging system for OS X modeled initially after FreeBSD ports collection. Hence I'd like to be able to build the app from sources, and if there are problems in that, I try to get them solved. The build process should co-operate with the dependencies, built similarly. The first version in MacPorts (at the time DarwinPorts) was 1.4, all versions so far have been without problems.

I assume you're not just trying to use pgAdmin, otherwise why not just use the bundle I provide which you said works OK?

If you want to hack on pgAdmin, then pkg/mac/debug-bundle.sh will create a symlink pseudo-bundle which doesn't need to be rebuilt every time you recompile.

Thanks for the tip, I'm always happy to learn new things!
