Description
Seems also that since 1.5 other plugins (3rd party, python) are affected. Has been reported to me (I don't have a Mac) that for example a user cannot show the settings of the Interactive Identify plugin or the the settings of the Google Layers plugin.

I found that googleLayers settings does not work in OS X 10.5 (I did not find any Interactive Identify plugin). No errors in the console log.
In 10.6 it works. Though the settings window is using a tiny compressed font, making it hard to read. Maybe this is a clue - non-standard GUI?
Main difference between systems: python 2.5 vs. 2.6.

it is among the standard 3rd party repositories

do you confirm then that also a core plugin spatial query does not work (at least on certain configurations)?

Ah, right. I didn't connect the bug title with the description as being separate content.
Spatial does not do anything. This makes it not just a python issue.
Maybe there's a Qt problem on Leopard. I currently use the Qt binaries for Qgis on Snow Leopard, and build my own Qt on Leopard so I can get a PPC Cocoa Qt. I'll try the Qt binaries for Leopard and see if that helps.

- Resolution set to invalid
- Status changed from Open to Closed
ding! That was it. Qt compiled from source wasn't working properly. This is probably what is causing some other problems on Leopard. I'm going to close this as invalid and build a new Qgis 1.5 package for Leopard.
Unfortunately, this means I can't make a PPC Mac Qgis. There were issues (I don't remember what) using Qt Carbon (the only "official" binaries available for PPC). Major problem for me actually, since we still have a lot of PPC Macs where I work, and I'm trying to get Qgis into our workflow. I'll have to look at Qt Carbon again...
