I've been working on an installation document specific to Mac
(especially for Fink, which I use for package management). I recently
did some tweaks to it when I went through what you just went through.
I also have a shell script I use for updating to the latest CVS and
building/installing it and a second shell script for replacing the
dbfawk files which get clobbered every time I do an update.

Here are the installation notes. Someday perhaps they'll get
integrated into the existing docs.
Installing Xastir on a Mac: (use in concert with the INSTALL doc
file which has more detail I don't wish to reproduce here)
by Chip (N1MIE) [EMAIL PROTECTED]
1. Install a Motif package (openmotif or lesstif can be installed
via Fink) [I found openmotif caused problems on my system (odd menu
issues), so I removed and installed lesstif which worked great. You
may also need to try it both ways.]
2. Ensure an entry similar to the below is in your '.bashrc' or
'.bash_profile' file:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib
*3. Install libproj (can be installed as 'proj' via Fink)
Install/update libtiff (can be installed via Fink)
Install libgeotiff
download and uncompress file (http://www.remotesensing.org/
geotiff/geotiff.html)
"./configure" or "./configure --prefix=/sw" (second places files
same place as Fink)
"sudo make"
"sudo make install"
*4. Install ShapeLib
download and uncompress file (http://shapelib.maptools.org)
"cc -c shpopen.c"
"cc -c shptree.c"
"cc -c dbfopen.c"
"ar cru libshp.a shpopen.o shptree.o dbfopen.o"
"sudo cp libshp.a /sw/lib"
"sudo ranlib /sw/lib/libshp.a"
"sudo mkdir /sw/include/libshp"
"sudo cp shapefil.h /sw/include/libshp/"
*5. Install ImageMagick (can be installed via Fink) [I had problems
when I used a pre-6.2 version]
*6. Install wget or curl (normally already present on OS X Macs)
*7. Install gpsman and gpsmanshp (I haven't tried this) [Not
available via Fink]
*8. Install Festival (I haven't tried this)
*9. Install GDAL (can be installed via Fink, must be done manually
on Intel Macs unless you enable Fink unstable tree)
download and uncompress file (http://remotesensing.org/gdal/)
"./configure --prefix=/sw --with-local=/sw/lib --with-
gif=internal --with-jpeg=internal" (may need to modify if you don't
use Fink)
"sudo make"
"sudo make install"
*10. Install Berkeley DataBase (can be installed via Fink)
11. Build Xastir (commands need to be executed from within
directory where Xastir source resides)
"./bootstrap.sh"
"./configure --with-bdb-libdir=/sw/lib --with-bdb-incdir=/sw/
include/db4"
or "./configure --with-bdb-libdir=/sw/lib --with-bdb-incdir=/sw/
include/db4 --prefix=/sw" (latter for use with Fink)
You can type "./configure --help" to get a list of all options.
Two other good options are "--with-rtree" and "--with-profiling".
* Optional installs
Shell script (must be in the same directory as the cvs update and
executed from that directory). I usually use the following command to
activate it (saves the output to a file as well as putting on the
screen):
$ ./myupdate.sh | tee myupdate.out
#!/bin/sh
# written by: Chip-N1MIE, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
# store current directory so I can get back
STARTDIR=$(pwd)
# this is done because I have had at least a few cases of loss of
configuration
echo;echo $(date)
echo "-------------------- Backing Up Config
--------------------";echo
# change the following line for the path to your preference folder
cd ~/.xastir
zip -our backup.zip config data gps logs tmp tracklogs
cd $STARTDIR
echo;echo $(date)
echo "-------------------- Getting CVS Update
--------------------";echo
# you can add desired switches here or put them in your .cvsrc file
# uncomment the desired update line
#cvs update -r STABLE
#cvs update -r RELEASE
cvs update -A
echo;echo $(date)
echo "-------------------- Executing 'bootstrap.sh'
--------------------";echo
./bootstrap.sh
echo;echo $(date)
echo "-------------------- Performing Configure With Options
--------------------";echo
# Edit the following line with configure options you desire
sudo ./configure --with-bdb-libdir=/sw/lib --with-bdb-incdir=/sw/
include/db4 --prefix=/sw --with-rtree # --with-profiling
echo;echo $(date)
echo "-------------------- Cleaning Old Make Files
--------------------";echo
sudo make clean
echo;echo $(date)
echo "-------------------- Compiling the Files
--------------------";echo
sudo make -s
echo;echo $(date)
echo "-------------------- Installing the Files
--------------------";echo
sudo make install -s
echo;echo "---------- Done ----------";echo
Second script to copy the dbfawk files back:
#!/bin/sh
# written by: Chip-N1MIE, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
sudo cp ~/Desktop/tgr2shp.dbfawk /usr/local/share/xastir/config/
sudo cp ~/Desktop/tgr2shppoly_2006.dbfawk /usr/local/share/xastir/
config/
