[Yazlist] Building yaz on MacOS X 10.6 fails with file not found

[Jean-Denis Muys]

Hi,

I am a newcomer here, I hope I don't break your netiquette.

I am on a project where I need to process UNIMARC ISO2709 files. One step in
the process is to convert the characters used in my file to either utf-8 or
latin1.

I am trying to use yaz-iconv for that. But I get errors when I try to build
yaz.

My machine is a Mac running Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.2.

The yaz doc says " The software is regularly tested on Debian GNU/Linux,
Redhat Linux, Ubuntu Linux, FreeBSD (i386), MAC OSX, SunOS 5.10 (sparc),
Windows 2000, Windows 2003 server."

Yet following the doc, after I "./configure", when I "make", I get after a
while and much output:

mv -f .deps/libyaz_server_la-mutex.Tpo .deps/libyaz_server_la-mutex.Plo
/bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CC   --mode=link gcc -D_THREAD_SAFE

make[1]: *** [libyaz_server.la] Error 1
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

I have no idea what to do to fix that error.

Unfortunately, I am not much of a Unix C programmer. My project is using
Perl.

Any help appreciated.

Jean-Denis Muys.
