yes, they seem pretty old: paul@meerkat:/usr/local/lib$ file libintl.* libintl.3.4.3.dylib: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures: [i386:Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386] [ppc:Mach-O dynamically linked shared library ppc] libintl.3.4.3.dylib (for architecture i386): Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386 libintl.3.4.3.dylib (for architecture ppc): Mach-O dynamically linked shared library ppc libintl.a: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures: [i386:current ar archive random library] [ppc:current ar archive random library] libintl.a (for architecture i386): current ar archive random library libintl.a (for architecture ppc): current ar archive random library libintl.la: libtool library file, ASCII text > You apparently installed *something*, or several somethings, back > in ought-six or so.

And when I got this laptop, I did a time machine backup then and restored it to this laptop to not have to install all my software from scratch. Maybe it's old stuff from Java installations. I also have XQuartz running since ages now which has been updated from version to version, currently 2.7.11. I don't know which it could be that could be that old. Seems like a lot of old stuff: paul@meerkat:/usr/local/lib$ file * | egrep "(i386|ppc)" | awk '{ print $1 }' | tr -d ':' | sort -u libMagick++.10.0.7.dylib libMagick++.a libMagick.10.0.7.dylib libMagick.a libWand.10.0.7.dylib libWand.a libasprintf.0.0.0.dylib libasprintf.a libfreetype.6.3.12.dylib libfreetype.a libgdraw.1.0.14.dylib libgettextlib-0.14.5.dylib libgettextpo.0.1.0.dylib libgettextpo.a libgettextsrc-0.14.5.dylib libgunicode.2.0.3.dylib libintl.3.4.3.dylib libintl.a libuninameslist-fr.0.0.1.dylib libuninameslist.0.0.1.dylib libwmf.a libwmflite.a > Anyway, now that we realize these are ancient history, you likely > need to install a more modern version anyway. will try, thanks. :-) Cheers, Paul
