Hello,
<br><br>
I have been running Scilab 5.4.1 on my Macbook Pro under ML 10.8.4 without any major issues.
<br><br>
Today I tried Scilab 6 and I receive the errors listed below. The error states that a library is missing in the folder /sw/... I do not have any /sw/ directory on root?
<br><br> 
Does anyone know a simple fix?  ...could not find much by googling, either.
<br>
Any hints & help is highly appreciated.
<br><br> 
I have the OS X Java 2013-04 and the Oracle JRE 1.7. 25 installed... 
<br><br> 
Thank you for your help.
<br>
Wil.
<br>
