Got X11, X11SDK, and Macports installed.
Tried installing something simple, a window manager, Blackbox.
This is what I get:
Code:
--->  Configuring blackbox
Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_x11_blackbox/work/blackbox-0.70.1" && ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --prefix=/opt/local --mandir=/opt/local/share/man " returned error 1

configure: error: Blackbox requires the X Window System libraries and headers.

Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

X is installed. I've used it with Fink, currently not installed.
This is my $PATH:
Code:
/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin:
/usr/X11R6/lib:/usr/X11R6/include:
/usr/X11R6/man:/usr/local/bin:/usr/include:/bin:/sbin:
/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin

Most of the stuff I've tried to install tells me that X isn't there.
Is there some way I can tell Macports that X is there?
Or is there another problem somewhere?
