That probably won't do anything.

None of that matters for making the docs.

You don't have svn installed?!  Hmm, did you install the OSX
developer tools?  It should have come on a separate DVD with the
OSX disks.

I don't _think_ you need them installed to build the docs, but
this might become an issue later.

Replace /sw/ with /opt/local.  /sw is the fink package manager stuff;
/opt is the macports.  I'll add a warning about this.

On MacOS X with macports, you should use this:

@verbatim
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/local/lib
exec /opt/local/bin/pngtopnm "$@"
@end verbatim



This step is the cause of your problems, BTW.  Remember to add two
files: pngtopnm, and pnmtopng, and change the relevant portion of
the second line.
