It works for me. Are you by any chance using a non-standard compiler or any non-standard options?
comment:3 Changed 3 years ago by migmit@…
Don't think so. Never installed any compilers except those from macports and XCode.

Well, there was one Security Update pending; but I've installed it today, tried rebuilding emacs and got the same error.
comment:6 Changed 3 years ago by migmit@…
Tried uninstalling everything and installing emacs. No good, same error.

I just built and installed emacs-app without any trouble. Do you have anything in /usr/local?
comment:8 Changed 3 years ago by migmit@…
Yes, thanks, that was the problem. I've uninstalled everything, renamed /usr/local to local.bak and installed emacs without trouble. After that I've tried to install emacs-app, and failed with a segmentation fault again. On a hunch, I've uninstalled emacs, and the emacs-app installation went smoothly, and I was able to install emacs after it. Everything seems to be working now.

- Status changed from new to closed
- Resolution set to invalid
I don't think I've ever tried installing both emacs and emacs-app, but it sounds like something from /usr/local got in the way. We might need to consider the ports as conflicting, recommending users to install only one.

They don't conflict -- I have them both installed.
comment:11 Changed 3 years ago by migmit@…
Well, me too, that's not the point. The point is, they do conflict if you install emacs first.
