Sorry, I got mixed up about my machines. I haven't tried the exiv2 download
on my G4 PPC, so I don't know if the download works. I'll stay with trying
to update my Intel Mac Pro for the moment. The latest version of Xcode is
3.1. My current version on the laptop is 2.4.1. I'll try updating Xcode. I
wonder whether updating Xcode will remove the clashing versions of libcc
that seem to be giving me trouble. I can't do this immediately, but will
report back in case it does give a fix, and then other people will know what
to do if they come across a similar problem.
