[Chimera-users] Mac OS X 10.4.3 update breaks Chimera

[Eric Pettersen]

Okay, there is version available for download (1.2185) that works on 
all versions of 10.4 (only).  Version 1.2184 runs on 10.2 through 
10.4.2.  The two versions are otherwise identical.  Please let us know 
about any problems you find with these.  Thanks!
