John and Greg,
Thanks for your explanation.

Bert,
The basic problem is that the Mac doesn't have pkg-config, so we can't
run configure successfuly. I think someone else got around that problem,
but that was some time ago. Can you see if the Makefile will work if you
just remove transcriber.h?
Thanks,
John
I already had pkg-config installed on my system. I even got it in three
locations:
/usr/local/bin/pkg-config
/sw/bin/pkg-config
/opt/bin/pkg-config
Just removing transcriber.h didn't work.

Hi Bert,
I did some further testing because I realized that I had modified my
mac some. However, following the below steps will install the latest
liblouisxml tar ball from http://www.abilitiessoft.com (which no
longer seems to include the Mac directory either). I should have
taken a closer look at Michel's instructions earlier; it would have
clarified things.
NOTE: I am assuming that you already have liblouis installed in /usr
or /usr/local.
1. Download pkg-config from http://pkg-config.freedesktop.org/releases/
Uncompress it and switch to the newly created directory. Install it
with ./configure; make; sudo make install. This will install it in
/usr/local by default.
2. Add the following line to your ~/.profile (you can change the
system profile if you prefer):
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig"
This line tells configure where to look for the *.pc files for
installed libraries. You should check to make sure that both of these
directories exist. Both of these directories will be needed because
libxml2 comes installed in /usr/lib, and the liblouis library will by
default install in /usr/local/lib.
3. Download the latest liblouisxml tarball from
http://www.abilitiessoft.com or svn; decompress it; switch to the
liblouisxml directory and run
./configure; make; sudo make install
I already tried these things yesterday. But without succes. Today I
tried it again, but this time with the latest tarball like you said
(instead of version 2.3.0 from svn), but I get the same errors. As a
matter of fact, the errors are the same you ran into some time ago :)

This works on my mac, and so hopefully should work for you. Although
I am still running 10.5 on a PPC, the standard installation shouldn't
have changed that much. Let me know if you run into any problems.
