/usr/local/ is the default location for building and installing xastir binaries and support files. For whatever reason the folks who make Mac build tools (fink, macports, etc) choose to put things in nonstandard (or at least nondefault) locations. The folks who put your package together used /opt/local instead of /usr/local. the documentation on the wiki assumes a standard build location of /usr/local. This means you probably need to substitute /opt/local anywhere you read /usr/local. -Jason kg4wsv _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://xastir.org/mailman/listinfo/xastir
