The problem here is the "Bus error". It is not a gramps issue. I believe that the "Bus error" is caused by a problem with gtk2/pygtk2 not gramps.

Yeah, I figured that out. Frustrating that no other port uses py- gnome or py-gtk2 in such a way as to make this more widely-known.

Try just running python from the command line and 'import gnome/ import gtk' I think that you will find that you get the same 'Bus error'.

I'm not that clever but I was able to provoke a bus error and capture the results with ktrace.

There is an issue with the configure scripts not working quite right on OS X, a work around is described on the gramps wiki. But this work around will not solve the problem that the version of gtk/pygtk is broken in macports.

I have passed this on to the gramps developers, in the event they have any advice, though I know it isn't the result of anything they're doing. - -- Paul Beard contact info: www.paulbeard.org/paulbeard.vcf pictures: http://www.flickr.com/photos/pdb206/ Are you trying to win an argument or solve a problem? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (Darwin) iD8DBQFF76vEfHLPwpj1/JQRAvi9AJ0a8uMEcODotwVuKJ7EwtYHX1YiOQCbB3ic bZJuUvLvnMK7aOF/NWwCtgM= =SPND -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
