i about to do this on a friends machine too - is this all you you have to do
on macs?  configure/make?  i know nothing about macs and wondered if
compiling/installing from the command line would update all required

etc...


go easy on me - i'm a total mac newbie - any pointers for unix geeks
appreciated.
