Please help with a mac osx installation... I had
installed 7.3.4 on osx 10.2.6 some months ago. it was
a painless installation. I responded to someone on the
apple help list about installing. this person was
having a problem with the make stage. I didn't think
to retry making on my system.

I did. I can not make it now. I am getting an error

any ideas... i believe the problem lies with the
december 2002 update to the developers tools.

Thanks,

Hi Theodore
I download 7.3.4 and build it !!!

All of PostgreSQL successfully made. Ready to install.

i am in OS X.2.6 and
% gnumake -v
GNU Make version 3.79, by Richard Stallman and Roland McGrath.
Built for powerpc-apple-darwin6.0
Copyright (C) 1988, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99

i dont patch gcc 3.3 ...
In gcc 3.1 all works ...
now you can do this for build with gcc 3.1 : (if you need)

sudo /usr/sbin/gcc_select 3.1

I am goiing to install gcc3.3 to see the probleme !!!

Payman

Tom,

I got a reply back from someone on the apple
developers list.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This is wrong. You need to use -no-cpp-precomp. It
says this in the release notes for the December tools
updater, as well as a number of other things... if you
haven't read the release notes carefully, then I would
read them again if I were you.
------------------------------------
so I tried make -no-cpp-precomp

it started the make and failed here:

make[3]: *** No rule to make target
`../../../src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.a', needed by
`pg_dump'. Stop.
make[2]: *** [all] Error 2


any ideas... do you have an ETA for the return of your
mac... we need you

Ted
