Hi Ryan. Bug 258 looks like a duplicate of bug 168, which was created for this same issue back in 2008. I've been able to get ganglia 3.1.2 running on OSX 10.5 following the workaround described in #168. I haven't upgraded to 10.6 yet, so I'm not sure what ganglia's status is there.

see http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/ for info on the tool (similar in
goals as MacPorts, but different philosophy: doesn't duplicate system
libraries, and is very lightweight - don't need to write a package

the ganglia package can be found at
http://www.github.com/rpavlik/homebrew - if you start with a standard

Ganglia with just one command:

homebrew install ganglia

I've also made formulas for the "Homebrew" package manager for the Mac: description to have it help manage that package.) My fork that includes homebrew setup, add my repo as a remote and merge it in, you can install

I hadn't heart of homebrew before.  Thanks for the tip!
