Mac OS X Wesnoth 1.8.6 crashes at startup

Post by tracer »

I double click on the Wesnoth application and it unexpectedly quits during launch.

I am using a Mac OS 10.5.8
I am trying to run Wesnoth 1.8.6 and I believe the configured language is English.
Attached is the backtrace copy.

Could you help me with this problem?

I reported a similar crash problem here http://gna.org/bugs/?18136

(Not exactly the same, because the OS is a different version.)

It might help the developers if you post your backtrace doc there.

I have an idea about how to fix this, but it's going to have to wait until I can get my old Quicksilver G4 out of storage for testing, which won't be for a few days.

I've got the same problem; I had 1.8.2 before, worked fine, upgraded to 1.8.6, and now it immediately crashes. Was it ever clear where this came from?

I had exactly the same result. 1.8.6 doesn't run on 10.5.x but works fine on my younger brother's computer (He uses 10.6.x)
