Fwhew!  The issues are slowly fading away...

Still problems that need to be cleaned up, but at least the problems people are having have workarounds. 

Working on the RAM-reduced, instant-startup upgrades now.  The new design will actually remove direct dependence on the blk*.dat files entirely!  There's just been way too many problems with it.  I'll simply retrieve and process data directly from Bitcoin-Qt/bitcoind as a peer using regular getdata/getheaders/getblocks requests and maintain my own database.  And that database will start out duplicating everything, but I am doing it in such a way that it will gracefully support various subsets of that data, like pruned blockchain, lite-node, address-indexed, etc.  This way, users will have the capability to run using remote [trusted!] bitcoind instances, and use as much RAM as they desire.

Might be some time before I iron all of it out, though...

Hi folks

I get the same error message (except the french part ;-) ) on Mac OSX Lion. Any solution for this?

At the moment, I want to use it only as EllipticCurve-Calculator in --noblockchain mode without any BitcoinClient installed.

best regards

You might consider doing Red Emerald's brew formula if that's all you want access to.  Obviously, it would be better to just have this work, but apparently the dependencies are still not totally standalone/bundled yet.

Thanks for your prompt response, Etotheipi.
At this point, just for using the EC Calculator, I will simply run it on Windows within a VM.

In the long run, if OSX glitches have been worked out, I'd be interested in using Armory with more functions.

Just to let you know that I've been thoroughly testing Armory on OSX with flawless results up to know - I just have some display problems (coin control display its a bit screwed), but functionalities are 100% working and stable.

Using OS X 10.8.3 on a 2,53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 8GB of RAM.

Thanks for the response, Rampion.
I'm running 10.7.x

Does it also work in offline/noblockchain mode?

Never tried the offline in OSX, I use Ubuntu 10.04 for the offline version.

Would appreciate if somebody could check if offline/noblockchain access works or gives errors.
thanks
