Aha! See the title of the thread - Sage 4.7! Not 4.7.1 or 4.7.2. So you got your binary from whoever provided the 4.7 Intel binaries (e.g., at http://www.cecm.sfu.ca/sage/osx/intel/index.html), which must have done that. Apparently we don't have any more recent 10.5 or 10.4 Intel binaries. So here is the way you can fix the binary, at least in principle. 1. Download the Sage source for 4.7.2 2. Build Sage from source (you'll probably have to move /sw, maybe not /opt) 3. Run "sage -bdist 4.7.2-OSX-32bit-10.5" or something like that 3.5 (optional) Run "export SAGE_APP_BUNDLE=yes" and then repeat 4. Let the webmaster for sagemath.org know you have a binary or two for him to upload 5. Congratulate yourself on becoming an official contributor to Sage! If I said something wrong, I'm sure someone will correct this momentarily. But if you are persistent enough to do what you just did to solve your problem, this will be a snap. - kcrisman -- To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
