Kevin,
thanks for picking this up. What I did was:
- Start python from the command line - run "import orange" (orange is in site-packages)
I get a 'bus error' and python crashes.
Orange is a data mining lib for python: http://www.ailab.si/orange/forum/index.php
I tried it with their lib, I compiled one from source on my machine, and I tried it with an older one another user sent me. All end up with this error.
I'm on a tiBook 668 MHz, running OS X 10.3.6
Looking at my logs, I found that other apps (that used to work) recently also crashed with EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001). Something in my system seems broken. On a OS X forum somewhere I found someone who experienced this kind of crashes when trying to run Logic Audio (a MIDI/Audio software by Apple) and got it running again after re-installing the system. However, the installer fails ('there was a problem with the installation process. please retry.') when I try to re-install 10.3 with the option to keep my settings. So I'm pretty much - stuck. :-(
best regards, Christoph
What were you trying to do? What program were you trying to run? We need more than a crash dump to help with this.
