Hi Everyone,

I am wanting to pgrade EMBOSS 6.3.1 on Mac OS X 10.6.6 (MacBook Pro 2.2 GHz, 
4GB) from EMBOSS 6.2.0 that was installed in Leopoard (10.5) before I upgraded 
to Snow Leopard (10.6) and it seems to not do the make process correctly, where 
in the plplot directory, the .libs directory does not get created, so when I do 
sudo make install, it fails with these error messages:

When I look in the source directory, /EMBOSS-6.3.1/plplot/ there is no .libs 
directory as there is in another installation on a newer MacBook Pro that I was 
able to successfully install this same software (10.6.6, 2.6 GHz, 8GB). 

My setup is a little more complicated than I would like, since I have installed 
the eBiotools-3.0.1-leopard software which sets up an older version of emboss 
5.0.0 within a /usr/ebiotools/ directory and uses a very nice gui program to 
access these older emboss programs, called "eBioX" (and I don't want to lose 
this). So I have been installing the newer 6.x version of emboss to use at the 
commandline and with kemboss, both of which work, sort of. I have to play with 
the environment variables to get the text output programs to work, but I cannot 
get the graphics to work from various emboss programs that try to make graphs, 
such as "charge". The text-based programs work but I want to get the graphics 
working as well as it does from the ebiotools versions and will probably need 
to re-make emboss 6.3.1 after (re)installing gd and libpng. However, on this 
mac, neither ps nor x11 work. On the newer mac, with 6.3.1 installed, I don't 
have png or gif support, but I can at least get g!
 raphs in ps and x11 to work.

Does anyone have any ideas of what I may be doing wrong? Is it possible that 
some environment variable could be causing this?

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim
