I've recently moved from emacs to TextMate and am enjoying the shift. When i first tested it, the Latex bundle option "Typeset & View" worked fine. However that was short lived, and a week later i now get "There was a problem reading the preferences file, continuing with defaults".

I've noticed other people have experienced this before, and the previous posts on the subject seem to say that this is a problem with the python plist parser under Tiger, but that Leopard should be fine. However i'm using 10.5.2 and the latest version of vanilla TextMate (freshly downloaded), running on a PPC G4. I have also freshly installed teTex from macports which works fine both in emacs and from the command line.
