Background: my main Xastir machine is a Mac Mini (Intel). A bit over a month ago it started getting erratic. My regular disk checks were showing a lot of errors. So I tried to repair them. Things spiraled out of control and I wound up having to get the hard drive replaced (AppleCare=free fix). I recently got the machine back and have been restoring things to normalcy. Previously I didn't backup (Time Machine) the folders where Xastir and it's support files lay (I'm now rectifying that). I use Fink. I don't use MacPorts. I have no interest in changing.

I tried to install GraphicsMagic manually (not available in Fink), I was unsuccessful. I couldn't get it to see libtiff even though it's installed. So I installed ImageMagick using Fink. But when I compile Xastir it says I have neither. So I can't view raster maps. So I started Xastir anyway. But it wouldn't let me select any of the line maps (auto select wouldn't work). I kept trying things and recompiling. Eventually I got something working because now I can see the line maps. But I'd still like to get the rasters working.

So I need some advice on (a) how to get other compiling efforts to see the libraries that Fink is installing and (b) how to get Xastir to see ImageMagick.
