Hi,
Wondering if any of you have experience compiling OS X (Tiger, iMac 20in) using Darwinports (instead of Fink). Everything goes well with the config until an error during compilation, the last few lines of which are pasted below.

Are you on intel or on ppc? If you are on intel, I would have an explanation, based on what I had to do for the Fink package:

The texmacs configure script is not aware of the existence of intel Macs and has to be fixed. It has (around line 6146 in version 1.0.6.5) a case

powerpc-*-darwin*)

which should be changed to

i*86-*-darwin* | powerpc-*-darwin*)

or perhaps simply to *-darwin*)

In the Fink package this is done via a one-line patch script. Maybe macports (FKA darwinports) hasn't updated this package for intel yet?
