But I guess then these nightly builds don't help you that much, since you're on 10.5.
In itself Pd-0.43.1-double-20111007-macosx106-x86_64.dmg runs without trouble on OSX 10.5. But:
- preference file org.puredata.pd.plist is read, this is vanilla's
preference file
- therefore, no external libs loaded at startup
For the moment, this may be an advantage. If we make test patches using namespaces for all external objects, like [zexy/limiter] etc, these patches will load the correct object for any Pd-extended install on the computer. When loading libs with help of the preference file, this is not guaranteed.* The only disadvantage is, you can not load an arbitrary patch which does not use namespaces.

- Here's an example. Pd-0.43.1-extended-20111002.app tries to load:
/Applications/Pdextended.app/Contents/Resources/extra/iemlib/iem_anything.pd_darwin: dlopen(/Applications/Pdextended.app/Contents/Resources/extra/iemlib/iem_anything.pd_darwin, 10): no suitable image found. Did find: /Applications/Pdextended.app/Contents/Resources/extra/iemlib/iem_anything.pd_darwin: mach-o, but wrong architecture
I think this is caused by using the 10.6 build on 10.5. It is only partially compatible.
