Us posting binaries made on random machines with questionable system-wide libraries can always lead to problems. I got access to a clean 10.4 OSX box and am building an OS X 10.4 intel binary right now, which i'll upload. Of course, I would be happy if matplotlib wouldn't link in the stupid system wide libpng ever! -- William --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
