dev release v.9.2.5 install problem on Intel / Tiger ?
I had a problem installing development release 9.2.5 on my Intel iMac running OS 10.4.10. When running the install package a window popped up with the following message:
"You cannot continue. There is nothing to install. "
I had no problem installing the ppc version of 9.2.5 on my work machine - a dual-G5 PowerMac runnnig OS 10.4.10.
I had previously installed dev release 9.2.4 on both machines.
Thanks in advance,

Good news and bad news.
Good: after deleting the file in Receipts, I was able to install 9.2.5
Bad: When I start newLISP, I see the dragonfly-on-cough-drop icon forever, or until I click on it, but the editing/REPL window never appears. I tried restarting my machine, but that didn't help.
thanks again,
Dave F.

Has nobody ever been able to install newlisp-9.2.5-intel.dmg correctly?
The intel.dmg was made on a new 10.5 Leopard MacMini-Intel, but installed fine for me on my 10.4 Tiger MacBook. The MacBook meanwhile is running 10.5 Leopard too (really love it :)).
Sometimes running a Java app for the first time on a rebooted machine can take a longer time, but not longer than a minute at most.
Has anybody been able to install newlisp-9.2.5-intel.dmg and run it correctly?

I get strange errors om my MacClassic when I install the package too !
(yes I have a real mac classic on my deskt,
but thats basicly for playing chess and for the smell of good old ozon..;-)
PS: I can stack 3 mac-mini's in that MacClassic of mine and still have room
for a beer on top ;-)

I am glad a recompile on Tiger 10.4 solved the problems. Thanks to Rickyboy for helping out and doing the compile for the intel package posted.
OS X 10.5 Leopard seems to employ a new function for loading dynamic libraries, which is not present on 10.4/Tiger. The old functions still work but are deprecated in 10.5 and any compiles made in Leopard will only use the new functions.
Perhaps this has to do with the speedup on a loaded system in Leopard.
For some time versions for Mac OS X Intel will be made on 10.4 Tiger. Hopefully Apple will address this problem soon and give a possibility to create Intel binaries for a Tiger target on Leopard.
