 When did it last work for you under Mac?

 resources (which are there if you run `"open -a wxMaxima"`). Fixing those
 errors would require intervention of the upstream maintainer if you really
 insisted in having a command-line version of that software.

 IIRC, it last worked before following the advice to delete this* symlink
 /opt/local/share/aclocal/wxwin.m4 (#48152). Actually, this symlink seems
 to have returned.

 Trying "port provides /opt/local/share/aclocal/wxwin.m4" returns
 "/opt/local/share/aclocal/wxwin.m4 is not provided by a MacPorts port."
