Glanz,

According to gsdali, he never installed the August Developer Tools Update, as he couldn't mount the image.

He was still using the July (Jaguar) Tools.

Maybe, his problem is due to a corrupt installation of the July Tools from the CD.


Cheers...

Speaking of the Dev tools. In the ADC there is the July tools, an august update, and an update to the august update. But for some reason the July tools are listed between these two updates.

How necessary are they to apply?

vonleigh,

1-The "July" Tools are the original Jaguar Tools released by Apple with 10.2.

2-The "August" update deals with issues with the July 2002 Mac OS X Developer Tools.

3-The "October" update patch "only" fixes a bug in the August 2002 Developer Tools Update which reverts the nibtool to the July Developer Tools installation.

I recommend the installation of all of them.


Cheers...

That could very well be! That happened to me once. I simply did a reinstall. BTW...., I know this is nearly off topic, but maybe not as much as we may believe. I once had many compiling problems caused by priv being botched during an install of 10.2. So what I did was to use the "Repair Disk Permissions" option under "First Aid"... I didn't even bother with a "Verify Disk Permissions" run beforehand. That solved 80% of my compilation probs. Permissions are a bit different in Jag.

Right now I'm using a GNAT compiler for 10.2 called WAVEFRONT available at http://www.adapower.net/macos/compiler.html

for many things.
