Re: [Gretl-devel] gretl on mac os10.5

Hi, here are my experiences with gretl (1.6.5) on Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5), on an Intel Mac: The dmg (http://ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu/pub/gretl/gretl-1.6.5.dmg) mostly works: I can run gretl with the ./gretl command described on http://gretl.sourceforge.net/osx.html; however, double-clicking gives an error saying that X11 couldn't be started or something like that. Then I tried to build from source, so I installed the most recent fink version (0.27.9?) and followed the steps on http://gretl.sourceforge.net/osx.html. It didn't work, here's what went wrong: 1) installing "dlcompat" gave me a (fink) error "no package found for specification" (BTW, I think I configured fink to use the "unstable" packages to get more recent versions. Could that be a problem?) 2) I proceeded anyway and then gretl's configure script complained about missing fftw3, so I installed that under fink as well. 3) Then configure went ok, but on make I got an error with ms_ole_open_vfs. That sounds very windows-ish to me, so I guess some platform check failed. Any ideas? Has anything changed since 1.6.5 that could help?
