config problem - Amaya on OS X

Hi folks,

I noticed that there is now a link from the Amaya site to notes about
compiling amaya on OS X - http://www.w3.org/2002/09/amaya-darwin.html - this
is a cool thing. Thanks.

I tried to do it a bit differently - I wanted to build a new fink package,
and I am using a machine that has OS X.2.1

The short story:

I got Damian Steer's original amaya-gtk info and patch files from fink
unstable and edited to give a 7.1 install, and ran into a configuring
problem.

It downloaded the source, built dlcompat-dev, lib-jpeg and lib-png quite
happily. It seemed to run fine until it came to creating makefiles, and then
it just created empty files.

Since I am now stuck not knowing enough to fix it I am going to try the
following steps:

1. build Amaya-gtk 6.1 from fink - this is known to work on OS X.1 so if it
     builds on X.2 that is useful information.

2. build a fink package for 6.4 - this shouldn't involve any real changes
     from 6.1 so I am hoping that it just works...

3. hope for some guidance about where the configuration is going wrong. If I
     have to hunt this down myself it will take a long time...

The details of what I did, and then the output,
are as follows:

WHAT I DID TO UPDATE THE FINK PACKAGE

As root:

mymac> cp /sw/fink/dists/main/unstable/web/amaya-gtk-6.1.-1.info /sw/fink/dists/main/local/finkinfo/amaya-gtk-7.1.-1.info
mymac> cp /sw/fink/dists/main/unstable/web/amaya-gtk-6.1.-1.patch /sw/fink/dists/main/local/finkinfo/amaya-gtk-7.1.-1.patch

Then edit the .info file to change the line

Version:	6.1

to

Version:	7.1

this is so it downloads the right source, and so fink knows what version is
being run.

I needed to edit the .patch file to take account of changes to
Amaya/amaya/Makefile.libwww and I did it the simplest way possible, by
removing the lines

-			-lwwwxml \

and

+			../$(LIBWWW)/Library/src/.libs/libwwwxml.a \

from the patchfile (since the line it tries to replace has been replaced by

                        $(LIBWWW_RDF_PARSER) \

and as far as I can tell this can stay as is.

I am not sure what the next step is so would appreciate some help... (I
looked at the configure script and realised I would need to spend a fair bit
of time to figure out how it works on my own).
