Yeah, that should work as a workaround. The real fix is to update the postinstall script to detect this situation and advise users to logout and log back in. --Jeremy

Hi,
Thank you for recompiling 2.7.10_rc1 for us old-folk as ~_rc2.
Now, I've found another problem but was able to do a quick symlink fix, let me know if this is correct. My typed notes says this:
- -*- quick fix for 2.7.10_rc2 -*-
Oops, upon starting the XQuartz.app from 2.7.10_rc2, my system.log keeps repeatedly belching this error:
Sep 11 02:45:00 SciFi com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[610] (org.macosforge.xquartz.startx[49123]): posix_spawn("/opt/X11/lib/X11/xinit/launchd_startx", ...): No such file or directory Sep 11 02:45:00 SciFi com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[610] (org.macosforge.xquartz.startx[49123]): Exited with exit code: 1 Sep 11 02:45:00 SciFi com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[610] (org.macosforge.xquartz.startx): Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
I think the installer for 2.7.10_rc2 removed launchd_startx which used to be located as shown above. Now, I found it under /opt/X11/libexec so I quickly put a symlink for it, e.g.
# cd /opt/X11/lib/X11/xinit # ln -s ../../../libexec/launchd_start?
(yes as root)
so this seems to work as the system.log shows now. ;p
- -*- end quick fix for 2.7.10_rc2 -*-
And so I am using ~_rc2 with the Pan newsreader to enter this message thru the GMane system.
