i have tried to start all over
as i had my system very messy (flink, darwin, several pythons...)

so i formated my hdd and start with a clean OSX

i have tried standalone Qgis and standard Qgis, neither worked.

in the standalone i have followed instructions to tell Qgis where is GDAL is
(inside the app) but the alias method did not worked 
i could not select the desktop alias into the app through the GdalTools config.

when i try to merge dem files with the standard build,  i get again:

"env: python: No such file or directory"


until someone with "better undersanding" comes
i may try older versions or options, any hint?

is there any older version of Qgis that works 
in an intel mac with SnowLeopard (OSX10.6.x) 
that has a working GDAL plugin ?

William, i can do tester work if its useful to you,
thanks for your builds 
i could have not get Qgis working at all without them.

sergio
