I tried getting a source install on my mac book yesterday and today.
It's not a normal *nix installation.  The location of the files are all
non-standard.
'make' is prefixed by /Developer/usr/bin/.

The question is *why* the location is nonstandard.  Other people's Macs
are not set up that way (mine seems to have these files in the expected
place, for example).

I added /Developer/usr/bin to PATH and tried ./configure.

That would help configure find the stuff in /Developer/usr/bin, but
it does nothing for files that ought to be in /usr/lib, /usr/include,
etc.  I am not sure whether adding these to the configure command
would be sufficient:

--with-includes=/Developer/usr/include --with-libraries=/Developer/usr/lib

On the whole the best thing would be to toss /Developer and reinstall
your devtools in the standard places.  The nonstandard location is going
to bite you for every package you work with, not only Postgres.

I have installed xcode311_2517_developerdvd that I added after I installed the Leopard OS. This was an upgrade from Tiger but that puked so I installed Leopard from scratch.

I will try installing this package again.
(note: Unix Tools is checked)



Running just ./configure....

I got past that part...

And finished the configure.

So, the answer seems to be that I did not install the Unix Tools portion of the XCode tools. Which naturally is so very obvious for installation of anything used to unix installations... I did strictly the default installation.


Sorry to run everyone through these loops. But now we all know something new about Mac OSX
