Okay, so I've built all (so far as I can tell) the ports I need using MacPorts, thanks again to the folks on this list. So I cd in OS X Terminal to the gimp-2.6.6-dev (my copy of gimp-2.6.6) folder and run configure. First it complains I have no TIFF library. Well, I don't use TIFF so I reran with ./configure --without-libtiff Result: checking for jpeg_destroy_decompress in -ljpeg... no configure: WARNING: *** XJT plug-in will not be built (JPEG library not found) *** configure: error: *** Checks for JPEG library failed. You can build without it by passing *** --without-libjpeg to configure but you won't be able to use JPEGs then. ???? I use JPEG images, so that will never do. So I go nosing around. echo $PATH per MacPorts gives /opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin I look at configure, and it's looking for /${exec_prefix}/lib where /${exec_prefix}=NONE. jpeglib.h (which does define jpeg_destroy_decompress) is in /opt/local/include while /opt/local/lib contains libjpeg.a libjpeg.dylib libjpeg.la libjpeg.62.dylib libjpeg.62.0.0 I tried changing configure such that exec_prefix=/opt/local and re-ran in but got the same error. Anyone know what's up?
