Comment (by vince@…):

 There is no way to fetch the necessary ECW library automatically, because
 it is furnished under a .dmg and not a .tgz or other UNIX archive format.
 Therefore, interaction with the user is mandatory. By default, the library
 is installed at the root under the Intergraph directory, which seems a
 very bad idea (/Intergraph/…). Any other option needs the user to manually
 alter the path during the installation process. If you consider that
 installing under /opt/local is a bad idea, I can easily manage with
 whatever other location.
