[mrtg-developers] Building mrtg-2.9.4 on Mac OS X PB

Folks,

	I'm trying to build a MRTG on Mac OS X Public Beta, but it's 
not working. Tobi's out of touch, and I'd appreciate any help you can 
give me. I have the Darwin gcc from Apple, and I've installed 
zlib-1.1.3, libpng-1.0.8, and gd-1.8.3. libm does not exist in Mac OS 
X, but its functionality has been merged into something else -- both 
libpng and gd compile and pass their own tests when I remove -lm from 
their makefiles.


	Should I just remove -lm from configure??

[pepper at g4 mrtg-2.9.4]$ grep lm configure
echo $ac_n "checking for acos in -lm""... $ac_c" 1>&6
echo "configure:1045: checking for acos in -lm" >&5
LIBS="-lm  $LIBS"
     -e 'y/abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz/ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ/'`
   LIBS="-lm $LIBS"
LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} -lm"
LIBS="-lgd -lpng -lz -lm $LIBS"
   LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -lpng -lz -lm"


	Should I use just ./configure or something more like the following?
./configure --with-gd=../gd-1.8.3 --with-z=../zlib-1.1.3 
--with-png=../libpng-1.0.8

>[pepper at g4 mrtg-2.9.4]$ ls /usr/local/lib/ /usr/local/include/
>/usr/local/include/:
>gd.h       gdcache.h  gdfontl.h  gdfonts.h  png.h      zconf.h
>gd_io.h    gdfontg.h  gdfontmb.h gdfontt.h  pngconf.h  zlib.h
>
>/usr/local/lib/:
>libgd.a   libpng.a  libz.a


	I don't see "gdImagePng" in ../gd-1.8.3 -- should it be 
there, or is the problem something else?

** The GD library is required for rateup to compile.
    Get it from http://www.boutell.com, compile it and
    use either --with-gd-lib=DIR and --with-gd-inc=DIR to specify
    its location. You might also have to use --with-z-inc, --with-z-lib
    and --with-png-inc, --with-png-lib for gd versions 1.6 and higher.
    Check config.log for more information on the problem.

	Assuming I get it all working, I'll put an mrtg binary on 
<http://port.mosxsw.com/> (assuming this is okay with Tobi), for 
people who have Mac OS X but lack the build tools or inclination to 
use them.


						Thanks much for any help,
