Summary:                    Mac OS X: grisbi cannot start if the script
`open-x11' does not exists
Description: 
On Mac OS X 10.5, I cannot find the script open-x11 (only the manpage
exists). And thus, Grisbi cannot start.

Perhaps a good idea would be to embed this script in Grisbi.app, or find a
way not needing it. I found an (ugly) workaround by changing
Grisbi.app/Contents/MacOS/script (I might have the wrong path, I can't
remember it exactly) to: http://mildred.pastebin.com/f115b961d

#!/bin/sh

DIR=`dirname "$0"`
TMP=/tmp/$UID/TemporaryItems
cd "$DIR/../..";
APPDIR=`pwd`
cd -
VERSION=v059

# re-create /tmp/slk symlink
CWD="/tmp/skl/Grisbi.app/Contents/Resources"
LNDIR=/tmp/skl/Grisbi.app
if [ ! -e $LNDIR/Contents/Resouces/$VERSION ]; then
        rm -f $LNDIR
        mkdir -p /tmp/skl
        ln -s "$APPDIR" $LNDIR
fi

cd ~/
export LANG=`grep '\b'\`defaults read -g AppleLanguages | sed
's/.\(..\).*/\1/'\`_ /usr/share/locale/locale.alias | sed -n
's/.*\(.._..\)\..*/\1/p;1q'`
if ! open-x11 "$CWD/bin/grisbi"; then
	open /Applications/Utilities/X11.app
	export DISPLAY=:0
	"$CWD/bin/grisbi"
fi

Well, should I say that the computer is a PowerPC. So I downloaded the file
Grisbi.app-0.5.9-X11-PPC-OSX-10.4.dmg which may not be compatible with
10.5. But it is the closest match.

This is a 0.5.9 bug, therefore, we won't fix it.
We are fully dedicating our efforts to the 0.6 version. The latest version
is the Release Candidate 2 available at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/grisbi/files/ [^]

Please consider migrating to the 0.6 version, and be sure to keep a copy
of your 0.5.9 accounts file as the 0.6 version is not in its final state.
