I am trying to install h5utils on my powerbook G4. The operating system
is Mac OS X. The problem is that when the command "./configure" is being
executed, it always says that the HDF5 libraries are required for
compilation, though I have already installed HDF5 in my computer. Does
anyone have experience on how to modify the setting for Mac so that the
HDF5 libraries can be located? The online documentation of h5utils only
mentions about the case of GNU/Linux.
Note that it is not sufficient to just compile HDF5. You need to 'sudo
make install' to put the HDF5 libraries into the standard /usr/local/lib
directory.
If you want to install somewhere other than /usr/local, say in your home
directory, you can use ./configure --prefix=<directory>. However, you
then should use the LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS environment variables to tell
h5utils where to find it. See:

(MacOS X is a Unix, so the standard Unix installation instructions are
applicable.)
