Hi Dave,

I have been using 1.2.16 on this platform for a long while now and it is
working fine - take a look at the MRC ftp site to see if you can get the
same binary:

ftp://ftp.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/pub/pre

Cheers,

Graeme

Morning all...

I've just downloaded the newest version of pointless, 1.2.15, using the
mac osx intel binary.

When I try and run it through the gui, it seems that my child gets hit
by some sort of bus error:

************************************************************************
***
* Information from CCP4Interface script
************************************************************************
***
The program run with command: pointless
has failed with error message
child killed: bus error
************************************************************************
***

#CCP4I TERMINATION STATUS 0 "child killed: bus error"
#CCP4I TERMINATION TIME 23 May 2008 10:04:00 #CCP4I MESSAGE Task failed

If I try and run it from the command line, I just get a bus error - my
child escapes unscathed this time - even if I just type pointless
without any commands...

I'm using mac osX 10.4.11, and an intel powered machine.

Has anybody got any fixes or suggestions for this?

Cheers,

Dave
