[GRASS-dev] unable to configure GRASS on Mac OSX 10.9 Maverick

Hi devs,

I tried to run GRASS 7 configure on new Mac 10.9 but it fails when trying to find GDAL:

configure: error: *** Unable to locate GDAL library.

I tried to reinstall GDAL from Williams’ binaries but it didn’t help. Any ideas what to check? I am using Mac OS just occasionally so I am not so familiar with it. I tried to look at configure file but I don’t really understand what’s going on there.

Thanks,
Anna

Thanks for this important heads up. We were hoping that compiling in OSX 10.9 would just work.

Have you checked to see if my GRASS 6 and 7 binaries run?

Michael your GRASS6 binary runs without any trouble so far.

I tried to reinstall GDAL from Williams' binaries but it didn't help. Any ideas what to check? I am using Mac OS just occasionally so I am not so familiar with it. I tried to look at configure file but I don't really understand what's going on there.

Thanks.

Once a Mavericks problem with R-Studio is fixed, I think I'm going to upgrade. So I can help work out compiling issues then.
