Let's not lose sight of a couple facts:
1. This is all regarding the Mac OS X package.
2. The author has already agreed to make some changes to his package.
3. This package is distributed on a source forge project page registered and maintained by this same developer.
4. The objectionable file is inside the mac package.
5. No one else has volunteered to make a mac friendly package.
I strongly disagree with #5 as I have been building the last two releases of the MacOS X version of FlightGear, but they haven't been picked up and moved to the FlightGear web page. Because I don't have infinite storage, Ican't keep them around forever. This is mainly becasue I was asked to include the base packages as a part of the release. If someone would be willing to take the update, I can have a version ready this afternoon.
Jonathan,
What Arthur offers (as I understand) is a nice native Mac package rather than a binary executable, a base package tar ball and a pointer to google with a hint to type unix in the search box and start reading. If you or someone else can provide similar native/easy mac packaging, I'd be happy to link to it, or host it. Please if you emailed a notice of your build to the mailing list and I missed it, send me a personal note, and subsequent reminders if necessary. I have a day job, a family (wife and 2 daughters), I admin the flightgear project, I do some work on the side for a commercial flight sim company. But mostly I thow all that aside and spend the bulk of my time trying to arbitrate and resolve flame wars on our mailing list. So think naturally fall through the cracks. Please remind me if I miss something important.
Regards,
Curt.
