[GRASS-dev] GRASS 6 REALLY IS broken on Mac

[Michael Barton]

I don't know if this is relevant, but it is weird. If you look at the error trace below, you'll see that the first group of lines references files in /Applications/GRASS/GRASS-6.4.app/Contents/MacOS. This is the GRASS app and is correct. But the second group (after the line feeds I added), references files in my source directory. Then the last group (again after a couple line feeds) references the app again. Somehow, GRASS is not finding the directories lmgr and gui_core in the app and somehow looking for them in the source. This may (or may not) the the cause of this error.
