Hi, I am trying to install the GIMP Animation Package on OS X 10.5.7. I downloaded GIMP just fine and I am running it on X11. I also downloaded the binary file for GAP from an FTP link on the GIMP.org page: ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/plug-ins/v2.6/gap/ . The install is significantly more difficult than the GIMP download and I am new to mac, making it a little harder.
The install notes say to use the command line and cd to the gimp gap folder, which I have done(I do have some dos experience...). It also tells me to type "./configure" to do the build, but the command line returns an error that there is no valid C compiler in the directory. The install notes say that it is possible that the C compiler is not compatible with ANSI, and gives a possible work around using "./configure CC="cc -Ae", which returns the error "C Compiler cannot create executable".
The install notes say that if this command doesn't work, install pre-built binaries of the GNU C compiler.
I guess the real problem is this: I can't find the GNU CC binaries. If anyone can help me out with this, I would be thankful. Also, if there are alternative ways to download the GAP (I have heard of using MacPorts, and I am going to try that right away...), please let me know.
