Technically, I had to write a Textile converter and a template engine in Cocoa so I could remove RubyCocoa. RubyCocoa was the culprit that was keeping me from building a 10.4 universal version of the app. This is also why the page rendering is faster.

You can get the new version here.

The problem is caused by some third party software I use that won’t build on Leopard properly so that it will also run on Tiger for the PowerPC. It works for Leopard Intel. So basically, I’ve decided to eliminate this third party software from the software, which could take awhile to do.

I apologize for your troubles. If you are using a PowerPC machine, just download the old version as mentioned above.

One of the fixes restores the ability to click on an attachment or image and get the original. This only works when you are online and this has always been the case.

The other problem was displaying image thumbnails. Before PackRat would simply access the thumbnail images when you were online and they would be saved in its cache and the images in the cache would be used when you were offline. This no longer works because images and attachments are now secured. You have to be online and logged in to access them. Again the API has no way of retrieving them. Because of this Packrat no longer displays the image thumbnails. It just displays links for the original images. I apologize for the loss of this feature but its beyond my control.

I plan to add support for displaying the images in Packrat 2.0. 37signals has also said they will add image download support to the API but it will be awhile. I don’t expect anything within 6 months, probably longer. I don’t plan to wait for 37signals unless I have to but I don’t expect to.

You can get Packrat 1.6.2 here.

Sherpa development has been placed on hold until Packrat 2 is released.
