Hi Joel, All,
Yes, sorry for that. I'm still learning how to do this. Here's the
latest news (some progress, incomplete):
With Jeff's earlier message I looked into and solved at least one of
the problems: that /Users/Newville/Codes/ifeffit/local/bin/perl
was all over the place and expected. Of course, this worked when I
tested it on my own machine!! I also found an issue with png
support.
I put a 3.0.1 dmg with these changes at
http://cars9.uchicago.edu/~ifeffit/src/iXAFS3.0.1.dmg
I believe this may work on 10.6 systems.
I tried this on a 10.5.7, i386 system (Julie's). The main iXAFS app
runs, but I unfortunately get 'dyld' loading errors for all
executables (including perl and ifeffit). I do not understand this,
as thhe executables are definitely listed as "universal", ut I suspect
it is a x86_64 v i386 issue. If anyone does understand this, please
let me know. FWIW, the machine I'm building on is less than 3 months
old, so I think it's x86_64, but 'arch' and 'uname -p' report i386.
On the build machine, running
arch -x86_64 ifeffit
runs fine.
arch -i386 ifeffit
runs, but Aquaterm does not generate a plot (using PGPLOT_DEV=/XS does
generate a plot with both settings). So my sense is that my box is
really x86_64, but reports i386 and this may be causing trouble on
real i386 machines.
What's stranger is that I also tried this on a very old G4 powerpc,
running 10.5. Here the iXAFS.app does not run, and indeed
the iXAFS executable (iXAFS.app/Contents/MacOS/iXAFS) is indeed i386
only. But, the ifeffit application DOES RUN(!!!) on this machine.
Perl runs too, but it appears I forgot to rebuild Ifeffit.pm for perl
after some change for png support because
perl -e 'use Ifeffit' still complains about png support. This is
fixable. I'll look into making the iXAFS launcher application be
universal.
The python problem is definitely fixable too -- sorry for such poor testing!
If you or Jeff or someone else wants to try this v3.0.1 out, that
would be fine, but there are definitely "known problems". I'll make
a v3.0.2 with the perl and python fixes today. I'll look into the
i386 v x86_64 issues too, but that will take some research...
Cheers,
--Matt

Hi Matt,
Not much luck with iXAFS3.0 so far.
Under 10.5.8 (two macbooks), iXAFS crashes at startup.
Under 10.6.4 (macbook pro), IXAFS opens, but clicking on athena/Artemis/Hephaestus only opens an X11 terminal.
I think that somehow the installer expects perl to live in /Users/Newville/:
$ pwd /Applications/iXAFS.app/Contents/Resources/local/bin b$ artemis -bash: /Applications/iXAFS.app/Contents/Resources/local/bin/artemis: /Users/Newville/Codes/ifeffit/local//bin/perl: bad interpreter: No such file or directory $
I also tried to install python, but something must be wrong with setup.py since files are copied to /Users/Newville. I now have such an inhabitant on my HD thanks to sudo, but even then the install failed. See details below.
Hope it’s nothing traumatic!
Thanks, JOEL
