Hi Jon, thanks for this very interesting experimentation, as usual. While installing Syncato on my Mac, I was obliged to figure out the detailed steps to build libxslt, so I figured out I'd post it here as a comment, for future readers (thanks, your link to kimbro's solution for libxml saved me a good deal of time). The full post is at http://www.chanezon.com/pat/weblog/archives/000131.html What misses from your article is mainly the configure options to tell libxslt where to find the libxml2 you just built. I built libxml with no particular option, so it installs in /usr/local. In order to configure libxslt you need to do: ./configure --with-python=/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/ --prefix=/usr/local --with-libxml-prefix=/usr/local --with-libxml-include-prefix=/usr/local/include --with-libxml-libs-prefix=/usr/local/lib This worked very well for me.
