Riven X 0.7d2 available now; fixes Tiger crash on launch

Saturday, July 26, 2008 in Projects | 2 comments

So, to be blunt, I screwed up the 0.7d1 release by not reading all the relevant documentation and switching to the new LLVM-GCC 4.2 compiler available in Xcode 3.1. Unfortunately, that compiler will produce applications that will not launch on systems earlier than Leopard (10.5).

I pulled out 0.7d1 from the appcast feed as soon as I found out, but unfortunately, anyone on Tiger who has updated to that release will not be able to use Sparkle to update to 0.7d2, since Riven X won’t launch at all for them. I am terribly sorry for the inconvenience.

Riven X 0.7d2 is available now from the sidebar and the appcast, and should work on Tiger and later.

    After upgrading from 0.6 to 0.7d2, I experience a launch crash on Tiger. Perhaps the Tiger compatibility issue is not fully fixed in 0.7d2?

    Steve: could you please open a bug on Launchpad (https://launchpad.net/rivenx). Make sure to attach the crash log.
