[GRASSLIST:8455] Re: compiling GRASS on mac os x

[William Kyngesburye]

Don't know what Lorenzo does exactly, but it's probably something  
similar to the Mac GRASS build instructions I maintain on the GRASS  
site and my own web site.

 From the GRASS downloads page, go to the Platform Notes, or:

<http://grass.itc.it/platforms/index.php>


A couple notes:

I found a problem on Panther - some modules may crash because of the  
SHLIB_LD setting in configure.  I have a solution, but until I get  
something on the build instructions page, email me if you need to  
build GRASS on Panther.

Also, I'm working on making my own binary distribution.  Not as fancy  
as Lorenzo's, with the app package and Tcl/Tk Aqua choice, but what  
you would get if you do a normal build from source.  ...At least at  
first - I may add a double-click thing for starting GRASS.  I'm doing  
this because I want something that is integrated with my other  
installers for GIS libraries and tools, PHP, Postgres+PostGIS and  
MapServer.  And I will try to keep it as up-to-date as possible.
