Sure. Here's the output:

As I suspected, you have an incomplete mixture of Apple's and Fink's X11. There are some headers and symbolic links missing that are essential for compiling things based on X11, and there is a half-installed Fink package. In particular


iU xfree86 4.3.99.16-2 Free X11 implementation for Darwin and Mac OS X

looks bad (U = unpacked, but not configured. And xfree86-shlibs is missing).


I think you should clean out your X11 installation:

  sudo dpkg -r --force-all xfree86
  sudo rm -rf /usr/X11R6  /etc/X11

and then reinstall X11. Here you have the choice between the Fink package and Apple's X11. There are valid reasons to prefer Fink's xfree86, but if you don't know of one, I would recommend to stay with Apple's X11.

For Apple's X11, you have to install the X11User.pkg and the X11SDK.pkg from your system disks.

For Fink's X11, you have to install the packages xfree86 and xfree86-shlibs, either via "fink install" from source (might not take long if you did not erase the *.deb files from your last attempt) or via "apt-get install" from binary.

Let us know how it goes.
