I finally compiled pspp and psppire successfully on Mac OS X 10.6. Here were my steps in case someone else wants to try it.
I installed the fink port of pspp $ fink install pspp But this will not include the GUI, so go ahead and remove it. $ fink remove pspp I do not know if this step is useful, but I figured I would let Fink take care of the dependencies (that's what a package manager is for right?). Obtain and expand the tarball and run configure with these flags: $ ./configure LDFLAGS="-L/sw/lib" CFLAGS="-I/sw/include -m32 " The reason I use -m32 is because I found a bunch of warnings in config.log: ld: warning: in /sw/lib/libgsl.dylib, file was built for i386 which is not the architecture being linked (x86_64) Once I specify that I want the same architecture that Fink uses, the configure script finishes without any errors. Finish off with $ make install and thats it! I am slightly worried that the check's are not all successful, $ make check says that 2 of 160 tests failed. Namely, FAIL: tests/command/insert.sh FAIL: tests/expressions/expressions.sh But this is better than nothing, I guess I could always populate a pspp file with the GUI, and maybe use Fink's pspp binary on it (assuming it's more reliable than my build). -David ---------- The future is here.
