*Mac OS X*

==========
|
|
|
|
Making Bugzilla work on Mac OS X requires the following
|
|
adjustments.

Sendmail
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
In Mac OS X 10.3 and later,
|
|
`Postfix <http://www.postfix.org/>`_
|
|
is used as the built-in email server. Postfix provides an executable
|
|
that mimics sendmail enough to fool Bugzilla, as long as Bugzilla can
|
|
find it. Bugzilla is able to find the fake sendmail executable without
|
|
any assistance.

Libraries & Perl Modules on Mac OS X
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Apple does not include the GD library with Mac OS X. Bugzilla
|
|
needs this for bug graphs.
|
|
|
|
You can use MacPorts (`<http://www.macports.org/>`_)
|
|
or Fink (`<http://sourceforge.net/projects/fink/>`_), both
|
|
of which are similar in nature to the CPAN installer, but install
|
|
common unix programs.
|
|
|
|
Follow the instructions for setting up MacPorts or Fink.
|
|
Once you have one installed, you'll want to use it to install the
|
|
:file:`gd2` package.
|
|
|
|
Fink will prompt you for a number of dependencies, type 'y' and hit
|
|
enter to install all of the dependencies and then watch it work. You will
|
|
then be able to use CPAN to
|
|
install the GD Perl module.
|
|
|
|
.. note:: To prevent creating conflicts with the software that Apple
|
|
installs by default, Fink creates its own directory tree at :file:`/sw`
|
|
where it installs most of
|
|
the software that it installs. This means your libraries and headers
|
|
will be at :file:`/sw/lib` and :file:`/sw/include` instead
|
|
of :file:`/usr/lib` and :file:`/usr/include`. When the
|
|
Perl module config script asks where your :file:`libgd`
|
|
is, be sure to tell it :file:`/sw/lib`.
|
|
|
|
Also available via MacPorts and Fink is
|
|
:file:`expat`. After installing the expat package, you
|
|
will be able to install XML::Parser using CPAN. If you use fink, there
|
|
is one caveat. Unlike recent versions of
|
|
the GD module, XML::Parser doesn't prompt for the location of the
|
|
required libraries. When using CPAN, you will need to use the following
|
|
command sequence:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
# perl -MCPAN -e'look XML::Parser'
|
|
# perl Makefile.PL EXPATLIBPATH=/sw/lib EXPATINCPATH=/sw/include
|
|
# make; make test; make install
|
|
# exit
|
|
|
|
The :command:`look` command will download the module and spawn
|
|
a new shell with the extracted files as the current working directory.
|
|
|
|
You should watch the output from these :command:`make` commands,
|
|
especially ``make test`` as errors may prevent
|
|
XML::Parser from functioning correctly with Bugzilla.
|
|
|
|
The :command:`exit` command will return you to your original shell.
