Have you tried my GDAL Complete framework?

The opensource FileGDB driver is included, and I've been using it exclusively for reading/converting FleGDBs for a while.  If there is a reason you need the FileGDB API driver, I could revive my GDAL plugin package.

I've tried downloading the FileGDB API v1.5 and following the analogous instructions listed here ( download the FileGDB API; copy it to the right place, then brew install gdal ), but haven't had any success yet. Running ogrinfo still doesn't present ESRI Geodatabase as an option.
