[GRASSLIST:2579] Re: problem dependency in GRASS 5.3 compilation

[Kirk R. Wythers]

Michael,

I went round and round trying to figure out what to install with fink 
and what to simply compile myself. In the end I installed most all the 
dependencies needed with fink (with the exception of gdal and grass 
itself... those I use cvs and compile source the old fashioned way).

There were some other binaries for OS X that were posted on the grass 
list (and since there were no reports of errors, I let the binaries 
that I was working on drop). It my be more expedient for your student 
to use those binaries. I just checked my mailboxes and doesn't look 
like I saved the link. Perhaps Scott has them, or someone else on the 
list (I remember that Scott's draft OS X help page had a spot to put 
links to binaries http://grass.itc.it/macgrass/macgrass.html).

Let me know if you need me to pick up the binaries that I was working 
on (and figure out how to remove the fink dependencies).
