>Description: MySQL fails to make under Mac OSX. During the make process numerous errors are displayed, but are generally ignored until I start recieving these errors: /usr/bin/ld: multiple definitions of symbol _optarg /usr/lib/libcurses.dylib(getopt.o) definition of _optarg ../libmysql/.libs/libmysqlclient.a(getopt.o) definition of _optarg in section (__DATA,__data) I get several of these, for values such as _opterrr, _optind, _optopt. With it finally ending with: make[2]: *** [mysql] Error 1 make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 >How-To-Repeat: Type following at prompt: ./configure --enable-assembler --with-mysqld-user=mysql --host=powerpc-apple-macos make >Fix: >Submitter-Id: >Originator: >Organization: >MySQL support: none >Synopsis: Cannot successfully build MySQL on OSX >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Category: mysql >Class: support >Release: mysql-3.23.42 (Source distribution) >Environment: <machine, os, target, libraries (multiple lines)> System: Darwin betaserver 1.3.3 Darwin Kernel Version 1.3.3: Fri May 4 13:46:54 P\ DT 2001; root:xnu/xnu-124.8.obj~1/RELEASE_PPC Power Macintosh powerpc Some paths: /usr/bin/perl /usr/bin/make /usr/bin/cc Compilation info: CC='gcc' CFLAGS='' CXX='gcc' CXXFLAGS='' LDFLAGS='' LIBC: lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 15 Sep 20 11:57 /usr/lib/libc.dylib -> libSystem.dylib Configure command: ./configure --with-unix-socket- path=/var/tmp/mysql.sock --with-low-memory --with-mit-threads=yes --without-perl --enable-thread-safe-client --with-berkeley-db --with-innodb --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
