Hi David,<br>
<br>
Did you try to reinstall Therion after updating to Catalina ? I don’t have Catalina, I’m sticking to High Sierra where everything is running fine so far.<br>
How do you usually install Therion on a Mac ?<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
Phil<br>

I have successfully built and installed Therion 5.4.4, and Therion and Loch both run fine. Before the upgrade, everything worked OK, but it looks like some things have moved around in this version of OS X, amongst other things breaking.

Here are my notes of the last install on High Sierra with homebrew, in case it can help …<br>
<br>
1) Install homebrew <br>
2) Install survex via homebrew (cf. survex site web)<br>
3) brew install tcl-tk<br>
4) install the mactex package<br>
5) add in ~/.profile : <br>
export PATH=/Library/TeX/texbin:$PATH<br>
6) brew install vtk<br>
7) In therion/loch, change the Makefile :<br>
comment: #VTKLIBPATH = $(shell tclsh ./getvtkver.tcl libpath)<br>
add: VTKLIBPATH = /usr/local/lib/<br>
8) In Therion directory <br>
make config-macosx<br>
make<br>
<br>
