Hi All,

OK, sorry for the delay, but I think that
http://cars9.uchicago.edu/~ifeffit/src/iXAFS3.0.3.dmg

should now work well for both Mac OS X 10.6 and 10.5. That is, all
the applications launch for me on a 10.6.5 machine and a 10.5.8
machine, and seem to work as expected. I'll try this on a PowerPC
machine within the next couple days.

I didn't include the Python module in this installer (I forgot), but put it at
http://cars9.uchicago.edu/~ifeffit/src/IfeffitPython-2.0.1.tar.gz

This *should* work now, but then I thought the last one was going to
work too. It might be best to run this through the Ifeffit Shell, or
to be extra careful in setting the environment to source the
/..../iXAFS.app/Contents/Resources/local/bin/iff_init.sh

As always, any feedback on what works and what doesn't would be
greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

--Matt

I had similar troubles on Mac OS X, I think possibly due to a bad
CPAN/Config.pm file (that is, /usr/lib/perl5/5.10.X/CPAN/Config.pm).
Among other things, I was also seeing CPAN trying to use /CPAN/ as its
root directory -- that can't be very good.

I think this could be related to the MyConfig.pm in Bruce's
distribution, which has
'cpan_home' => File::Spec->catfile($ENV{__INSTALLING_BRPERL}, "CPAN"),

but I haven't tested this carefully.

Anyway, I would suggest blowing away the CPAN/CONFIG.pm file and
starting over. I think that will use a '.cpan' folder in your home
directory for CPAN stuff, and that might fix it.

If that doesn't help, hopefully Bruce will have more insight.
