I'm trying to compile postgres 8.1.2 on OS X 10.2.8. Unfortunately I'm not
much of a
compile-your-own guy, and I've hit a compile error that's beyond my
improvisation abilities, and
gets no google hits either.
I realize this also an OS X expert thing: I'm also seeking help on one of the
apple.com lists as
well.
I installed the December 2002 xcode package of developer stuff from apple,
which seemed to be the
last one that was for OS X 10.2.
Initially I only installed the parts called BSDSDK and Developer Tools
Software.
The postgres configure utility ran through fine.
I ran make.
Several minutes into it, I got a missing header file for osx installed version
constants.
So I then installed the xcode part called Mac OS X SDK.
I ran make again.
Now, further in, I get the following output and error (note the "make -C file
SUBSYS.o" is output,
not my initial command which was just "make" in the directory at the top of the
postgres source).
make -C file SUBSYS.o
gcc -no-cpp-precomp -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith
-Winline -fno-strict-aliasing
-I../../../../src/include -I/sw/include -c -o fd.o fd.c
fd.c: In function `pg_fsync_writethrough':
fd.c:271: `F_FULLFSYNC' undeclared (first use in this function)
fd.c:271: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
fd.c:271: for each function it appears in.)
make[4]: *** [fd.o] Error 1
make[3]: *** [file-recursive] Error 2
make[2]: *** [storage-recursive] Error 2
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2
Searching, I couldn't find anything useful on the F_FULLFSYNC constant, and no
reports on a
similar failure.
Any ideas? (Help!)
Thanks,
Neil
