[Xquartz-dev] XQuartz 2.7.10_beta2

[Viv Kendon]

This sparkled its way onto my mac just now, but won’t launch properly.  Error in console log is:

17/06/2016 14:36:21.860 com.apple.launchd.peruser.502[175]: (org.macosforge.xquartz.startx[34868]) Job failed to exec(3). Setting up event to tell us when to try again: 2: No such file or directory
17/06/2016 14:36:21.860 com.apple.launchd.peruser.502[175]: (org.macosforge.xquartz.startx[34868]) Job failed to exec(3) for weird reason: 2

There is some sort of running process (dock icon is lit) but finder says it is unresponsive.  top shows

34867  X11.bin      0.0  00:00.00 1      0    7     163985  532K   472K   0B
34832  X11.bin      0.0  00:00.19 2      0    34    163982  13M    264K   0B

Needless to say I haven’t changed anything X-related since the previous version was working just fine.

Suggestions?  Anything I could useful do/send to debug this?

many thanks,
