[Qgis-user] QGIS with SAGA in macos

[William Kyngesburye]

I don't remember if there was an error running SAGA commands when I was checking things out.  I do remember that compiling SAGA 2.0.x was a problem on OS X and 2.1 dev source or RC is required.

I only tested the theissen polygons that Sextante uses as a test for the presence of SAGA.

What SAGA command are you running, and is it from Sextante (in QGIS), or in SAGA (not in QGIS)?

Where did you get your SAGA - did you compile from source, or was a binary from somewhere?  I compiled just the commands, without any GUI or python, neither used in sextante.
