Forwarding to ardour-users.  Most troubling.

This is a wild guess (as I'm no programmer)
but after doing a bit of maintenance on my OSX install
(pre-binding apps etc)
Ardour no longer works at all..AGAIN.
I've used Onyx (the most recent version)
to reset:

Mac Help
Display of folders content
Links between documents and apps
Spotlight index
Launch Services database...

This has never presented a problem for any other
app I've ever used except (it appears) Ardour.
I'd suggest to anyone using Ardour with OSX/X-11
to really not bother until this is somehow addressed.

Ardour has even changed back to that initial grey interface.
Previous to that looked like the page from the Ardour website.
