Please either find out which version of JtR you're using (and let us
know) or download and try a recent version (and let us know which one as
well). To find out JtR version, run it in a terminal without giving it
any command-line options. It will print a lengthy usage summary, but
before that it will also print its version number (you might need to
scroll up to see it).

dmg2john.py is a script that is run as-is, it is not to be "compiled".
I guess what you mean is that your version did not include that script.
However, it might have included dmg2john binary executable, which is
compiled from some C source files. These two implementations of
dmg2john provide similar functionality (but there may be differences).

Which branch?

Great! Now just feed it to a recent enough version of JtR.

What do you mean by "too "excessive hashes" were loaded for cracking"?
What did this look like?

This suggests that either your password was cracked, or you received
false positives (although for a .dmg file that is unexpected). Please
try running "./john --show" on your .txt file (the dmg2john output)?
Does it print a cracked password? Does that password work? Having
tried that, you may "rm john.pot" and start over, this time observing
the behavior more closely so that you can report it to us in here.

Definitely some confusion is going on. Other than that, it's unclear.
Let's find out, or avoid the problem by using a newer version.
