Hi Adam.

I knew of that method of fixing this problem but just didn't think of it for some odd reason. Things are sure odd these days.  :)
Thanks for the tip.

The strage thing though is that it always worked before for me even with fgfs source.

By the way there are some build instructions which are located at:
<http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=26350&group_id=126825 >
It's part of the documentation linked to from http://macflightgear.sourceforge.net

It probably needs to be updated or improved in some areas. If you are so inclined you could join the macflightgear project and help out. Contact me about that.

Thanks.

This is a known problem with building FlightGear on a Mac.  For some
reason autogen for FG does not copy them, while it works fine for
SimGear.  I have not been able to figure out why it happens, or what
is different about FG and SG, but I wrote some Mac build instructions
that have a work around.  Here is the relevant part:

* Build FlightGear

> cd $BUILDDIR/src/source
> ./autogen.sh
Automake should do the next two steps, but for some reason does not
for FlightGear
(but it does for SimGear, which is odd)
> ln -s /usr/share/automake-1.6/config.guess config.guess
> ln -s /usr/share/automake-1.6/config.sub config.sub
> ./configure --prefix=$BUILDDIR --without-x
> make

Does anyone know if my Mac build instructions were ever included in
any documentation anywhere?  Best I can tell, the only Mac build
instructions are very old, out of date, and don't work at all.
Instead they just lead newbies off in a completely wrong direction.
