Are you sure you do not have any leftover i386 igraph libraries on  
your iBook? The reason why I'm asking is:

1. seemingly the compiler or the linker opts for the i386 architecture
2. according to the following snippets of the console log you sent,  
there's an igraph .dylib in /usr/local/lib/ and there's another one  
in /usr/lib:

> /usr/bin/ld: warning /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk/usr/local/lib/ 
> libigraph.dylib cputype (18, architecture ppc) does not match

> error: Setup script exited with error: SandboxViolation: open('/usr/ 
> lib/libigraph.dylib', 'wb') {}
This is how you can check the architecture of these files from the  
command line:

address@hidden:/usr/lib$ file libigraph.dylib
libigraph.dylib: Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386

It should read ppc in your case.
