Agree ... it takes a certain kind of person to install ROS on OSX ... it is not for the timid :)
1) I always modify /etc/profile ... I am the only one that uses my Mac
2) If you change the permissions for the python directories, you shouldn't need to do sudo. However, once you do sudo, your stuck with it until you fix the permissions again.
3) installing log4cxx through homebrew was no problem for me ... what were your issues, I don't understand.
4) yes, boost 1.50 is a known issue
5) agree ... the "new" ROS layout is confusing. Why the example install commands show ~/ros in them is silly IMHO. I don't like the way they have hard coded /opt/ros/... into things. Pre-fuerte, I would install ROS into /usr/local/ros like I do with homebrew and it worked fine.
6) things must have changed since I last installed that ... I didn't have any issues before.
7) yes, you have to make sure your env is setup correctly and I do have gsed installed, but I have not linked it like you and haven't had any issues. Also, was "(lauras topic)" supposed to be linked to something???
