Re: [XaraXtreme-dev] Mac build



Hi Brian,

I have a query about one of the points you raised:

-The IJG distribution of libjpeg does not build correctly using the standard procedure. Everything appears to work fine and the tests even run without any errors, but other packages will fail to recognize the resulting binaries. I found the following instructions online that corrected this problem:
tar zxvf jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz
cd jpeg-6b
cp /usr/share/libtool/config.sub .
cp /usr/share/libtool/config.guess .
./configure --enable-shared --enable-static
make
sudo make install
sudo ranlib /usr/local/lib/libjpeg.a


The current mac build instrs on xaraxtreme.org suggest using "sudo make install-lib". Did you try that before finding the procedure you describe above? I only ask because I used "make install-lib" and I don't /think/ I had to do anything else to produce a usable library (although that was some months ago now). Can you give us a URL explaining why "make install-lib" might not work?

Ta, Phil
