[GRASS-user] Startup error with 6.4.1svn on OSX 10.6.4

[William Kyngesburye]

The GRASS package seems to be incomplete - it's running the system wxpython, but linking the bundled wx libraries, which are probably much newer and incompatible with the system.  If both wxpython and wx libraries are bundled, then maybe the bundled wxpython is not in the python path (it should be in etc/python in the GRASS app package).

Did you build from source?  Or install a binary (I think Michael Barton has a svn binary available)?
