    I am trying to install pyxplot on Mac OS X 10.7.4.  I have installed all recommended macport packages recommended here:

    http://pyxplot.org.uk/0.8/doc/html/sect0007.html

    but when I ./configure, i get:

    rdominguez5359:pyxplot-0.8.4 racheledominguez$ ./configure
    Checking for latex             …………. YES
    Checking for ImageMagick convert………… YES
    Checking for sed               …………. YES
    Checking for gunzip            …………. YES
    Checking for wget              …………. YES
    Checking for ghostscript       …………. YES
    Checking for ghostview         …………. YES (gv, double hyphen options)
    Checking for ggv               …………. YES (ggv, don't forget to set "watch file" in the viewer preferences!)
    Checking for GNU make          …………. YES (make)
    Checking for gcc               …………. YES
    Checking for libreadline-dev   …………. YES
    Checking for libcfitsio-dev    …………. NO
    Checking for libgsl0-dev       …………. YES
    Checking version of libgsl0-dev ………… YES
    Checking for libfftw3-dev      …………. NO
    Checking for libfftw2-dev      …………. NO
    ERROR: Header files for required library 'libfftw' could not be found.

    Here is my path:

    rdominguez5359:pyxplot-0.8.4 racheledominguez$ echo $PATH
    /opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/texbin

    So it seems I may need to point it towards the /lib directory too.  So I tried

    env CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/local/include" LDFLAGS="-L/opt/local/lib" ./configure

    and I get the same output.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!  I'm a noob and have been working on this all day!

    Thanks!
