Thanks for the pointers. It seems that the main decision is whether or not to go with Mac Frameworks rather than an all-in-one approach.
If I understand "frameworks", they are much like the more traditional shared libraries. Both have versioning and should support a mix of version requirements by applications. I.e. if you have a collection of the last 4 or 5 versions of the library sets, applications should be able to happily work together without getting confused or failing. When working at Sun with Solaris, I did indeed experience delightful backward compatibility with the ability to also install newer systems. But I'm a bit skeptical that Apple has pulled that off. Would you agree that's the "bet" here? If Frameworks do indeed work, then I should prefer using them but if they don't work as well as they should, I should use the all-in-one? It would be nice to have the presumed ability to use all the GRASS components (GDAL etc) by them selves as well as within GRASS. Any experience of the two installs would be much appreciated! -- Owen -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/OpenOSX-Grass%3A-x11-installed-but-not-found%21-tp18040681p18049850.html Sent from the Grass - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ grass-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user
