[GRASS-user] Mac 6.4.1-3 Update Problems

[William Kyngesburye]

That's been a very frustrating one.  Some builds work for me (this does) and not for others, other builds don't work for me and do for others.  Some all OK, some not.

But it does seem to be connected to libpng (which is in my UnixImageIO framework).  I did forget to update the wxPython part of my GRASS distribution to use the new UnixImageIO, so that may be the problem for you (though you'd probably get a more fundamental error if that was the case).  I'll have a new package online soon.
