In this case, Xcode's c++ isn't even that relevant, since xtide uses the compilers from gcc48 because the build requires features that Apple's compilers don't seem to have. I got a prior report offlist from someone else with the same error message on 10.8, but I never got a reply when I told them to look at the config.log . -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Introducing Performance Central, a new site from SourceForge and AppDynamics.
