Hi,

I dont know if graph-tool is fully supported under macosx, but I have encountered a few problems with building it (on osx 10.6). The problems seem to stem from the configure/libtool scripts- about which I know very little- but I have figured out enough to get it to build. I noticed the same problem was reported on this list back in October (was it ever resolved?) - the errors were along the lines of "configure: error: No usable boost::python found". This problem would seem to be solved by modifying the configure script, which tries to link against the boost libraries with libboost-python*.[so,a] extensions- on osx I have compiled boost as a shared library and so it should look for libboost-python*.[dylib]. There is a patch for the configure script below. I also found some problems with the libtool script, so I replaced it with libtool (from the macports libtool package) (cp /opt/local/bin/glibtool ~/src/graph-tool/libtool) and the build proceeded to completion. This patch just gets the build working- I dont really know where the configure script gets the [so,a] information from, and its old version of libtool- the proper fix would address these issues.

There was also a problem I encountered with numpy_bind.hh when compiling with gcc44 (from macports). The fix was to add another element to the numpy_types map- the patch is also below.

regards,

tcb
