[Mono-list] Mac X and latest cvs source

[Matthieu Cormier]

Thanks for the response.

I've downloaded the latest source from cvs and unsuccessfully tried making
the mono module.

Below is a summary of what I tried to do to install.
My main questions are:
	1. What libtool is everyone using?  Does it require a specific
version?  autogen.sh tries using a --version option which isn't available
on the version I compiled and installed so I commented out that initial
test.
	2. Have I not installed glib properly?  Why is pkg-config giving
me the error displayed below?

	3. Typing make in the mcs directory gives me a Bus error.  I'm
assuming that this is because there is no jit compiler on Mac and it is
try to use mint.  Is this correct?

Thanks, M@

checked out mono sources
Tried ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local in mono module
wanted libtool
	dowloaded and extracted libtool-1.4.2.tar.gz
	setenv CFLAGS "-no-cpp-precomp"
	./configure
	make
	make check

retried ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local
still wanted libtool
looked at autogen.sh
tried libtool --version ( didn't work )
commented out libtool test in autogen.sh

retried ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local
Got Error message

I know I installed glib-2.0.7 but let's install the latest stable release
	downloaded and extracted glib-2.2.2.tar.gz from ftp.gtk.org
	setenv CFLAGS "-no-cpp-precomp"

retried ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local
	recieved same error message

NOTES: When running ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local I get the following
"You should update your `aclocal.m4' by running aclocal"
running aclocal inside the directory does not eliminate this message,
have never used aclocal before
