I just installed Quark Passport 7.2 cleanly, but get the following log when I try to launch it for the first time. Any help?

Well, I found the problem.

In my case, it was because my entire drive directory was hosed. I had to reformat it and reinstall everything -- the OS, all apps, everything. Fortunately, it doesn't look like I lost any critical data. And now the machine runs better generally.

So if you're having this problem, I'd recommend you (a) BACKUP, then (b) run Disk Utility, then (c) run Tech Tool if Disk Utility finds problems it can't fix, then (d) wipe and reinstall if the problem's not solved.

Good luck!

One last note: Of course you should restart and attempt to install QuarkXPress a second time before doing anything as drastic as I needed to do. :)
