[libdbi-devel] OS X build

[Toby T. <to...@sm...>]

Hi,

While poking around in the source tree today I noticed the OS X build  
notes include the following recipe:

LIBTOOLIZE=glibtoolize ./autogen.sh
./configure CFLAGS="-I/sw/include" LDFLAGS="-L/sw/lib"
make CFLAGS="-I/sw/include" LDFLAGS="-L/sw/lib"
sudo make install

I believe the /sw/* directories are Fink's, perhaps of use if the  
configure script is supposed to find specific preinstalled Fink  
packages there (openjade?). However, /sw is not a standard part of OS  
X, and the simpler recipe:

LIBTOOLIZE=glibtoolize ./autogen.sh
./configure --disable-docs
make
sudo make install

...works fine on my (10.4.9 PowerPC) system (there's no openjade,  
hence --disable-docs).

Is it worth changing the README.osx?
