It looks like that cleanup routine doesn't cover the delete and reinstall of QGIS itself. This is probably your problem.
It's a known problem that appeared after I packaged QGIS, and I never got it into the readme: the installer doesn't delete old plugins in the application (there are a few plugins that were merged into the application in 1.8), and those old plugins don't agree with the new QGIS. So, delete QGIS from your Applications folder. Then reinstall QGIS. On Oct 29, 2012, at 5:27 PM, Ben Jones wrote: > Hi, > > Thanks simbamangu for the tip re doing a clean install.
