First of all, mad props to you guys.. you're doing fantastic work.

Next.. I'm trying to compile the new release of Gaim. All is going well, it detects the platform, and compiles for quite a long time.. however, it then complains about multiple definitions of _dlsym. The last few lines of the compile process:

/bin/sh ../libtool --silent --mode=link gcc -g -O2 -I/usr/local/include -I/opt/include -I.. -I/sw/include -DNEED_GNOMESUPPORT_H -I/sw/lib/gnome-libs/include -I/sw/include/gtk-1.2 -I/sw/include/glib-1.2 -I/sw/lib/glib/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/sw/include -I/sw/include/gtk-1.2 -I/sw/include/glib-1.2 -I/sw/lib/glib/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/sw/include -g -pipe -pipe -fno-common -DHAS_TELLDIR_PROTOTYPE -fno-strict-aliasing -I/System/Library/Perl/darwin/CORE -DLOCALEDIR=\"/usr/local/share/locale\" -DLIBDIR=\"/usr/local/lib/gaim/\" -o gaim -export-dynamic about.o aim.o applet.o away.o browser.o buddy.o buddy_chat.o conversation.o dialogs.o gaimrc.o gtkimhtml.o gtkspell.o gtkticker.o html.o idle.o multi.o perl.o plugins.o prefs.o proxy.o prpl.o server.o sound.o ticker.o util.o getopt.o getopt1.o -L/sw/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgnomeui -lart_lgpl -lgdk_imlib -lSM -lICE -lgtk -lgdk -lgmodule -lintl -lXext -lX11 -lgnome -lgnomesupport -lesd -laudiofile -lm -lglib -ldl -L/sw/lib -lgdk_pixbuf -L/sw/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgtk -lgdk -lgmodule -lglib -ldl -lintl -lXext -lX11 -lm -L/sw/lib -lesd -laudiofile -lm protocols/oscar/liboscar.a protocols/toc/libtoc.a /System/Library/Perl/darwin/auto/DynaLoader/DynaLoader.a -L/System/Library/Perl/darwin/CORE -lperl -lm -lc -lXss ../intl/libintl.a -liconv

Sorry so long, hope it will help. I appreciate anything you can do to help me out.. I was so sure it was going to work on the first try! [img]images/icons/smile.gif"%20border="0[/img]

Keep up the fantastic work, I check back often.

Best wishes,

Remove references to DynaLoader in your Makefiles. -lm already covers it, so you have a duplicate.

Changed all Makefile's so that the line

PERL_LIBS = PERL_LIBS = /System/Library/Perl/darwin/auto/DynaLoader/DynaLoader.a -L/System/Library/Perl/darwin/CORE -lperl -lm -lc

now reads

PERL_LIBS = -L/System/Library/Perl/darwin/CORE -lperl -lm -lc


....

however after making all the plugins, execution stops at the line:

/bin/sh ../libtool --silent --mode=link gcc -g -O2 -I/usr/local/include -I/opt/include -I.. -I/sw/include -DNEED_GNOMESUPPORT_H -I/sw/lib/gnome-libs/include -I/sw/include/gtk-1.2 -I/sw/include/glib-1.2 -I/sw/lib/glib/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/sw/include -I/sw/include/gtk-1.2 -I/sw/include/glib-1.2 -I/sw/lib/glib/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/sw/include -g -pipe -pipe -fno-common -DHAS_TELLDIR_PROTOTYPE -fno-strict-aliasing -I/System/Library/Perl/darwin/CORE -DLOCALEDIR=\"/usr/local/share/locale\" -DLIBDIR=\"/usr/local/lib/gaim/\" -o gaim -export-dynamic about.o aim.o applet.o away.o browser.o buddy.o buddy_chat.o conversation.o dialogs.o gaimrc.o gtkimhtml.o gtkspell.o gtkticker.o html.o idle.o multi.o perl.o plugins.o prefs.o proxy.o prpl.o server.o sound.o ticker.o util.o getopt.o getopt1.o -L/sw/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgnomeui -lart_lgpl -lgdk_imlib -lSM -lICE -lgtk -lgdk -lgmodule -lintl -lXext -lX11 -lgnome -lgnomesupport -lesd -laudiofile -lm -lglib -ldl -L/sw/lib -lgdk_pixbuf -L/sw/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgtk -lgdk -lgmodule -lglib -ldl -lintl -lXext -lX11 -lm -L/sw/lib -lesd -laudiofile -lm protocols/oscar/liboscar.a protocols/toc/libtoc.a -L/System/Library/Perl/darwin/CORE -lperl -lm -lc -lXss ../intl/libintl.a -liconv

and dies. So, we're getting closer, but it looks as though it's wanting something that was in the part I took out. Any suggestions?

Thanks.. I'm learning (slowly)

As it turns out, the version on macosx.forked.net IS 0.43. there was some confusion on my part with the versioning used. To compile anyhow, run configure with --disable-perl.
