Ah. That's an odd issue with MapServer's configure script. It
checks for static libraries for many things, including proj. I don't
include static libraries in my packages. I edit configure to check
for dynamic libraries instead. If you use BBEdit or TextWrangler, I
use this find/replace:
grep: (lib(png|jpeg|gd|proj|pdf|Xpm)).a
with: \1.dylib
Also, just to make sure to use the libXpm in my GraphicsLibs, replace
all '-lX11' in configure with nothing (that is, delete -lX11).
It should affect more than just proj (see the grep line above), but
maybe you have built some of the other dependencies in /usr/local in
the past?

Well, I've been considering Python mapscript. Things that have been

- I forgot (that universal thing, again, pushed a lot to the back of
my mind)
I have built it before as a test. What's the problem with PROJ? My
installers include proj 4.4.9, is there a some build error?
I don't think there's a build error, but to build python mapscript,
simply using --with-proj=/usr/local/gislibs does not work. So I built
proj and installed it into a dummy location so that the mapscript for
python build would be able to pick it up.

First of all, thanks for the great packages!
I just voted for Tiger-only. But I'm a pretty small-potatoes user,
I suspect your poll may get skewed by that kind of thing.
However, as long as you're asking, I did run into trouble the other
day not being able to build python mapscript after having installed
all the Mac packages. I wrote this up:

If I did something really stupid, please let me know...
