Hello, Had to stop on Friday before 2.15.28 came through. Hence was testing 2.15.27 on Intel Mac OS 10.4.11, double-clicking on program icon after unpacking. Traceback looks similar to the previous PPC error messages. Will download version 28 now, and then try command line as well. Best regards

Hi, It looks from the trace that it's the UI that's not working. May be the command line tool is still working, and may be the command line tool built from Fink (a package manager on MacOS) is working as well. (MacPorts requires MacOS 10.6). So there might be workarounds. My opinion is that
