Dear Tech talk,
it is I once more, the early adopter of OS X 10.5 :)
After the initial help of getting base to build (thanks once more for
the incredible prompt turn around) I didn't run into any problem
building the Alarm Handler nor even MEDM (thought I would with the later).
Now I am trying to build SDDS - latest version downloaded from their
website.
I run into the following error:
make -C O.darwin-ppc -f ../Makefile TOP=../../../.. T_A=darwin-ppc install
/usr/bin/c++ -o libgd.3.14.9.dylib -dynamiclib -flat_namespace
-undefined suppress -install_name

ld: library not found for -lXpm
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [libgd.3.14.9.dylib] Error 1
make[1]: *** [install.darwin-ppc] Error 2
make: *** [gd.install] Error 2
Now, when I used Mac Ports (switched from Fink to try it out) to install
Xpm it get the error message:
Activating xpm 3.4k_0
Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error:
/usr/X11/bin/cxpm already exists and does not belong to a registered
port. Unable to activate port xpm.
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
Naturally my question is how I get SDDS to build?
My ultimate goal is to get the VLinac to run on my machine. It is really
a great way to test if everything is working and to try out new things.
Thanks once more,
Bertrand
