Greetings all,

I’ve found what _appears_ to be a bug the latest daily build of Chirp. I can reproduce it by loading memory save for an Icom 880 that had some channels removed from it and then trying to click over to the Banks tab. The banks tab is empty but then the application crashes:

Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV) Exception Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x0000000000000000

Anyway, I downloaded the latest source through Mercurial, did a brew install pytgtk and ran ./chirpw… and now the “bug” won’t show up. So I’m wondering if maybe there is a problem with my installed runtime vs. the development libraries?

I can’t find any instructions on how to build for OS X. I tried running python setup.py build, but I get this message:

nvahalik:08:51 PM:~/chirp.hg$ python setup.py build running build cp: /opt/local/etc/pango/pangox.aliases: No such file or directory

So maybe there is something else I need to install? All my Python work has been wxPython so far…
