Doxygen OS X app crashes on launch (10.6.8)

0

Has anyone successfully launched Doxygen 1.8.7 on Snow Leopard 10.6.8? After following the simple "drag-to-applications-folder" installation, double-clicking causes the app to immediately crash (in DoxyWizard?) with no backtrace:

Binary images description not available

Perhaps there's more to the install process? DO UNIX binaries need to be built in order for the UI app to run?

Doxywizard 1.8.7 and its library dependencies were built with a deployment target of 10.9:

$ otool -l Doxygen.app/Contents/MacOS/Doxywizard | fgrep --after-context=3 LC_VERSION_MIN
      cmd LC_VERSION_MIN_MACOSX
  cmdsize 16
  version 10.9
      sdk 10.9

This means the application can only be run on a system running OS X 10.9 or later. Either support for older operating systems was removed in this release or the binaries were accidentally built with an incorrect deployment target.
