compiling celestia 1.3.2 on mac os 10.3.7

[arlduc]

hi,

i've been trying and trying to compile celestia 1.3.2 on Mac OS 10.3.7 and I've been getting a "zlib not found" message during the configure.

Here's how I configure it
./configure --with-glut

And here are the messages:

Thanks in advance for any help,

You need to install the zlib development package so that the appropriate libraries are available.

Sorry: I'm not a Mac expert, so I can't tell you where to get the Mac specific version. However, you can start at http://www.gzip.org/zlib/

[arlduc]

I did install zlib-- that's why I'm so puzzled!

[selden]

Did you install the development package, not just the program?

If so, presumably it's not in the directory where the config script expects it to be.

[arlduc]

I installed the dev package and specified its directory when I went to configure Celestia:

./configure --with-glut --with-zlib-dir=/usr/local



I put my config.log online if you'd like a look:
http://www2.sva.edu/~arlene/3dAnim/AMNH/config.log

thanks, Arlene

Sorry: you've exausted my limited knowledge of the topic. Hopefully one of the Mac experts can help more.

The relevant part seems to be:

Code: Select all

configure:17947: checking for X
configure:18049: gcc -E  conftest.c
configure:18045:27: X11/Intrinsic.h: No such file or directory
configure:18055: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
#line 18044 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
#include <X11/Intrinsic.h>
configure:18153: result: no
configure:19125: checking for deflate in -lz
configure:19158: gcc -o conftest -DNDEBUG -O2     -O2 -Wall -ffast-math -fexpensive-optimizations -fomit-frame-pointer   conftest.c -lz    -lm   -lXmu -lXi -lXext -lX11 -lm -lz  >&5
ld: can't locate file for: -lXmu

Probably X11 development packages are missing.
