Re: Install on OSX Maverics

[Louis Ciotti]

My problem was how I had installed gcc resulted in it being located in the 
incorrect location. 

Final got it installed, the build process was taking forever at atlas, I had to 
put the macports dir on the spotlight private list.  After that the build moved 
much faster.
