Re: Mac OS X nightlies are up!

 

(I wrongly sent this mail only to Bernhard in the first place. Here is it for the list again, sorry.)

Hi Bernhard,

the crash happens both when starting pcbnew standalone, and when starting pcbnew or the footprint editor from the main Kicad app. Unfortunately, I don't have another Mac to cross check. On my 10.10.2 machine, it crashes every time.

I did however check my latest own build again, which has no problems with either pcbnew or the footprint editor. It was built two weeks ago, from r5410, and with python scripting enabled. I don't know if this does help you, but here is the version information string for this working build:

Application: kicad
Version: (2015-02-06 BZR 5410)-product Release build
wxWidgets: Version 3.0.2 (debug,UTF-8,compiler with C++ ABI 1002,GCC 4.2.1,STL containers,compatible with 2.8)
Platform: Mac OS X (Darwin 14.1.0 x86_64), 64 bit, Little endian, wxMac
Boost version: 1.57.0
        USE_WX_GRAPHICS_CONTEXT=OFF
        USE_WX_OVERLAY=ON
        KICAD_SCRIPTING=ON
        KICAD_SCRIPTING_MODULES=ON
        KICAD_SCRIPTING_WXPYTHON=ON
        USE_FP_LIB_TABLE=HARD_CODED_ON
        BUILD_GITHUB_PLUGIN=ON
        KICAD_USE_WEBKIT=OFF


Best,

Johannes
