Also applied. I updated Makefile.am to include them in the source
tarballs as well.

Hmm - whilst I doubt my configure-ese is up to it, can you supply a
config.log file so that Adam can take a look (assuming he has time of
course :-p ).

Perhaps the treeview control only supports 16 colours on Mac?

Thanks, Dave.

Ok - I'll do that.

Hm... could be the reason - I reported it as a bug to wxmac, but they
answered that they don't know about any problems, but they want
to see a screenshot... maybe the wxmac people can figure something out...

At the moment I'm working on some improvements to the app-bundle
bulding. It the patch I sent you, pgadmin is first
installed into ./tmp, and the files are copied from there into
the bundle. I'm trying to point datadir and friend directly to the
bundle instead, because it should make building the bundle much faster,
and generally seems to be less hacky ;-)

But - for the moment - I'm fighting with automake - it doesn't seem to
like what I'm trying to do ;-)

Anyway, thanks for applying
