[rrd-developers] RRD under Mac OSX 10.1.2 HOWTO

[Danny Bendersky]

Hi, 

I was looking in the web and there is no information in how to do this, so
After I did it I want to share my experience. I know that is not the best
solution, but it works.

Maybe some one will improve it.

The steps I made to install RRD under Mac OSX 10.1.2 were:

The steps I made with the errors were:

1) ./configure --host=powerpc (get some warnings)
2) make
3) make install (and get the errors)


As the erros said that cannot find a file (RRDs.dylib), I just guess that
this file is not important or that I will not need it, so I did:

[localhost:dbenders/dev/rrdtool-1.0.33] root# pwd
/Users/dbenders/dev/rrdtool-1.0.33

[localhost:dbenders/dev/rrdtool-1.0.33] root# ls -la
perl-shared/blib/arch/auto/RRDs/
total 1704
drwxr-xr-x  6 dbenders  staff     264 Jan 30 15:49 .
drwxr-xr-x  3 dbenders  staff     264 Jan 29 18:31 ..
-rw-r--r--  1 dbenders  staff       0 Sep  2 20:35 .exists
-rw-r--r--  1 dbenders  staff       0 Jan 29 18:31 RRDs.bs
-rwxr-xr-x  1 dbenders  staff  864264 Jan 29 18:31 RRDs.bundle

Then:

ln -s RRDs.bs RRDs.dylib

[localhost:dbenders/dev/rrdtool-1.0.33] root# ls -la
perl-shared/blib/arch/auto/RRDs/
total 1704
drwxr-xr-x  6 dbenders  staff     264 Jan 30 15:49 .
drwxr-xr-x  3 dbenders  staff     264 Jan 29 18:31 ..
-rw-r--r--  1 dbenders  staff       0 Sep  2 20:35 .exists
-rw-r--r--  1 dbenders  staff       0 Jan 29 18:31 RRDs.bs
-rwxr-xr-x  1 dbenders  staff  864264 Jan 29 18:31 RRDs.bundle
lrwxr-xr-x  1 dbenders  staff       7 Jan 30 15:49 RRDs.dylib -> RRDs.bs

So in summary the steps that works were:

1) ./configure --host=powerpc
2) make
3) cd perl-shared/blib/arch/auto/RRDs/
4) ln -s RRDs.bs RRDs.dylib
5) Get to the top directory and type "make install"

The only question is if that will afect me in any way.
