With macports, I ran 'port uninstall openmotif' and that took care of it. It's been a while since I switched from fink to macports (I found that having both installed would really confuse things), but I think there is a similar command like "fink uninstall <packagename>". Check "man fink" to get the correct syntax.

The thing about your note that caught my attention was in step #1 where you say "so I removed and installed....". My question is how on earth did you remove openmotif? I have tried everything and have not been able to get rid of it, I've over installed both a newer and older version and I've installed lesstif but I can't get Xastir to see anything except the bad version of openmotif. Please give me details.

Thanks...

With a small amount of work by us the OSX people could also have an
easy source install of Xastir.

Installing Xastir on a Mac: (use in concert with the INSTALL doc file which has more detail I don't wish to reproduce here)
        by Chip (N1MIE) [EMAIL PROTECTED]

1. Install a Motif package (openmotif or lesstif can be installed via Fink) [I found openmotif caused problems on my system (odd menu issues), so I removed and installed lesstif which worked great. You may also need to try it both ways.]

2. Ensure an entry similar to the below is in your '.bashrc' or '.bash_profile' file:
        LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib

*3. Install libproj (can be installed as 'proj' via Fink)
        Install/update libtiff (can be installed via Fink)
        Install libgeotiff
download and uncompress file (http://www.remotesensing.org/ geotiff/geotiff.html) "./configure" or "./configure --prefix=/sw" (second places files same place as Fink)
                "sudo make"
                "sudo make install"

*4. Install ShapeLib
                download and uncompress file (http://shapelib.maptools.org)
                "cc -c shpopen.c"
                "cc -c shptree.c"
                "cc -c dbfopen.c"
                "ar cru libshp.a shpopen.o shptree.o dbfopen.o"
                "sudo cp libshp.a /sw/lib"
                "sudo ranlib /sw/lib/libshp.a"
                "sudo mkdir /sw/include/libshp"
                "sudo cp shapefil.h /sw/include/libshp/"

*5. Install ImageMagick (can be installed via Fink) [I had problems when I used a pre-6.2 version] or install GraphicsMagick (download from site and follow Mac OS X instructions found in PLATFORM.txt) -- there is a mistake in this file it says to issue a command "ln -s sw /sw" but it should read "ln -s /sw sw", the make will not work until this link is made

*6. Install wget or curl (normally already present on OS X Macs)

*7. Install gpsman and gpsmanshp (I haven't tried this) [Not available via Fink]

*8. Install Festival (I haven't tried this)

*9. Install GDAL (can be installed via Fink, must be done manually on Intel Macs unless you enable Fink unstable tree)
                download and uncompress file (http://remotesensing.org/gdal/)
"./configure --prefix=/sw --with-local=/sw/lib --with- gif=internal --with-jpeg=internal" (may need to modify if you don't use Fink)
                "sudo make"
                "sudo make install"

*10. Install Berkeley DataBase (can be installed via Fink)

11. Build Xastir (commands need to be executed from within directory where Xastir source resides)
                "./bootstrap.sh"
"./configure --with-bdb-libdir=/sw/lib --with-bdb-incdir=/sw/ include/db4" or "./configure --with-bdb-libdir=/sw/lib --with-bdb-incdir=/sw/ include/db4 --prefix=/sw" (latter for use with Fink) You can type "./configure --help" to get a list of all options. Two other good options are "--with-rtree" and "--with-profiling".


* Optional installs
