[Xastir] Trouble Compiling (Mac OS X)

[C. Griffin]

Background: my main Xastir machine is a Mac Mini (Intel). A bit over a  
month ago it started getting erratic. My regular disk checks were  
showing a lot of errors. So I tried to repair them. Things spiraled  
out of control and I wound up having to get the hard drive replaced  
(AppleCare=free fix). I recently got the machine back and have been  
restoring things to normalcy. Previously I didn't backup (Time  
Machine) the folders where Xastir and it's support files lay (I'm now  
rectifying that). I use Fink. I don't use MacPorts. I have no interest  
in changing.

I tried to install GraphicsMagic manually (not available in Fink), I  
was unsuccessful. I couldn't get it to see libtiff even though it's  
installed. So I installed ImageMagick using Fink. But when I compile  
Xastir it says I have neither. So I can't view raster maps. So I  
started Xastir anyway. But it wouldn't let me select any of the line  
maps (auto select wouldn't work). I kept trying things and  
recompiling. Eventually I got something working because now I can see  
the line maps. But I'd still like to get the rasters working.

So I need some advice on (a) how to get other compiling efforts to see  
the libraries that Fink is installing and (b) how to get Xastir to see  
ImageMagick.
