Having just updated the afni binaries (and also updated xquartz to 2.7.11), afni GUI now crashes on startup, without even opening a window. I cannot work out why. because the afni system check doesn’t find a problem, as far as I can tell.
The Terminal output is as follows:
Precompiled binary macos_10.12_local: Feb 15 2019 (Version AFNI_19.0.14 'Tiberius')
Thanks go to J Kummer for inspiration
Initializing: X11
++ If you are using XQuartz 2.7.10 (or later), and AFNI crashes when
+ opening windows, or you cannot type text into AFNI popup windows,
+ you might need to set an environment variable to solve this problem:
+ setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH /opt/X11/lib/flat_namespace
+ This command is best put in your startup ~/.cshrc file, so that
+ it will be invoked for every (t)csh shell you open.
