Hey guys,
I just got back from my two week trip to the Southwest. Yesterday I resolved the issue with building a \
dmg with my script, so now I can build DMGs that will work with older Macs and have all the features we \
want in the dmg.
Next we can look into this Find Dialog bug. I did some experiments today and I found that if I run \
kstars from the command line or in a debugger, the find dialog works fine, but when running the app by \
double clicking it crashes when you first access the find dialog. This seems to me to indicate an \
environment issue, like maybe an issue with environment variables or maybe a link to a library that isn't \
properly in the app. I will check further.
Thanks,
Rob
