Thanks for trying to help, Carl.
I think my main problem here is an ID10T error, lol.
to make myself feel a smidge better, I think the 2nd problem is I have
been following outdated instructions.
Based on your information, could I have just done this:
sudo /opt/local/bin/port install libgeotiff shapelib
and that's it?
In that scenario, would I still need to do the separate libtiff
download and install, and do it before I downloaded the geotiff via
MacPorts, or is that included in the geotiff download package when
done via MacPorts?

Following the sites instructions, I installed what I could using
MacPorts. The instructions noted that shapelib and geotiff can not
be installed with MacPorts, and provided the instructions I've been
posting in my "problem threads". This is where I've run into the
troubles.
Shapelib and libgeotiff are both in the Macports repository. They
are listed as having no maintainer, but they do install and work for
me.
http://www.macports.org/ports.php?by=library&substr=libgeotiff
http://www.macports.org/ports.php?by=library&substr=shapelib
and the repository also contains Xastir 1.9.8
http://www.macports.org/ports.php?by=name&substr=xastir
To get Xastir 1.9.8 should just require;
sudo port install xastir
with a reasonably recent Macports update which should install all
the dependancies.
You can then disable 1.9.8 using;
sudo port disable xastir
and then follow the cvs instructions to install 1.9.9.
You might need to specify the db include and lib directories;
sh bootstrap.sh
./configure --with-bdb-incdir=/opt/local/include/db46/ --with-bdb-
libdir=/opt/local/lib/db46/
make
sudo make install
NOTE: This will put Xastir into /usr/local/[bin|share]/ and not
into /opt as MacPorts uses.
This is all working on my dual 2.7Ghz G5 PowerMac running Leopard.
I haven't tried them on an intel mac in a while, but they were
working 6 months ago.
Carl,
