Re: Build fails on Darwin



i tested this using a CVS head sandbox and it worked fine for me. are you
sure you did a "make distclean" to delete any crud and delete all
configuration information?

Quite sure. I unpacked the 2.0.11 distribution from ftp.openldap.org into a new directory, did "make distclean" just for good measure, then "./configure --without-threads --disable-dynamic; make depend; make". Same error. Likewise: clean directory, "autoconf; ./configure --disable-dynamnic --without-threads; make depend; make".


Were you on a 10.0.3 machine at 4P13?  Maybe Apple broke something recently.

I'm doing this on an hfs+ filesystem, not ufs; you? I know that filenames are case-insensitive on hfs+ (eek!), which has just _got_ to cause a problem somewhere along the line. (I have a can with a 4GB drive in it. I can newfs a ufs to rule that out. Unless it's /usr that matters. Hmmmm.)

I may try some older releases (now that I have an external fan pointing at the Wallstreet), just to see what happens. I've been running 2.0.7 in other places (Solaris 8/SPARC) with no serious trouble -- not that I use it very hard. Anything in that range would do for what I need right now, if I could just get it to compile.

I'll put config.status and make.out in ftp://folderol.jlw.com/pub/jxh, as soon as it finishes again. If you could take a look to see where we diverge, I'd be most grateful.

can't help you with hacking the autoconf stuff, i have no clue about it
(and i do not think it is required in this case)
