[egenix-users] Mac OS X compilation issues

[Giovanni Luca Ciampaglia]

Hello list,
I'm trying to compile psycopg on Mac OS X 10.4 on a Mac Intel machine, 
but it
seems like there's a problem with the configure script.

this is what I get:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And In config.log this is what I get

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why ld assumes my binary is built for ppc, and why there are both -arch 
ppc and -arch i386?
How can I get rid of -arch ppc?

Thank you for support!
