Thanks for your report. This is a limitation of all Python programs, not just Zenmap. When a path contains a ':' it confuses the splitting of sys.path. http://bugs.python.org/issue1507224 For some reason the Mac OS X Finder displays the ':' character as '/', so if you have a folder with a name like "misc/junk", its name is really "misc:junk" and you can't run a Python installation from inside it. The fix in this case is easy--just move the Zenmap icon to a different folder. The installer normally puts it in /Applications.
