Hi,

I tried installing the dec13 external packages on my macbook with os x 10.9.2 (maverick), however it was complaining in the configuration stage about a missing libX11, even though I installed the XQuartz package.
I dug a little deeper and found out that the config script found the library but it thought it was a 32bit lib instead of 64bit.

Here's an excerpt of functions.sh from the scripts subfolder in the external package directory:

674	    else
675	        logmsg " file -L $chklib64 | grep '64-bit'"
676	        file -L $chklib64 | grep '64-bit' > /dev/null 2>& 1
677	        ret=$?
678	    fi


I ran the file -L on my libX11 and that returned [x86_64] not [64-bit] etc. I modified the code to this

674	    else
675	        logmsg " file -L $chklib64 | grep '64-bit'"
676	        file -L $chklib64 | grep '64-bit' > /dev/null 2>& 1
677	        ret=$?
                if [ "$ret" -eq "1" ]; then
	          logmsg " file -L $chklib64 | grep 'x86_64'"
	          file -L $chklib64 | grep 'x86_64' > /dev/null 2>& 1
	          ret=$?
	        fi
            fi



and it seems to work (still compiling). Did anyone have similar problems?

Best regards,

Stefan
