Bug Description

Mixxx version 1.10.1
I experienced this bug when I performed an upgrade to OSX Lion, but it could affect anyone using OSX.

After upgrading I was unable to launch Mixxx from Applications, but it did launch normally from a command line. The error seen was "The package may be corrupted or incomplete"

The actual executables name is "mixxx" (/Applications/Mixxx.app/Contents/MacOS/mixxx), but the info.plist in the Mixxx.app package lists the following:
<key>CFBundleExecutable</key><string>Mixxx</string>

Changing this to lower case (the actual executable name) solved the issue.
The CFBundleExecutable value should match the executable name exactly, including case!

I'm not sure if we changed anything but suddenly the case of our Mixxx binary now matches the Info.plist (they are both capitalized). Marking this fixed -- thanks for the report Lily.
