[GRASS-dev] GRASS 7 fails to start on OS X

[Michael Barton]

I just checked this and have no problem whether I move GRASS 6 out of the /Applications/GRASS folder or not. This seems to be related to your system but it is weird. Just to make sure I understand, you are not trying to run both of these at the same time are you?

I just downloaded it onto a different computer, along with the frameworks for the dev versions (on my site), and all works well. If this does not solve your problem there may be a more insidious issue that no one completely understands yet. Hopefully this is NOT the issue.
