The easiest way to compile rsync on Mac OS X is to install the developer tools. > This step may involve downloading the latest version of developer tools from > the Apple Developer Site. This is by far the most time consuming part of this > process. Once you have the developer tools installed compilation of rsync v3 > with patches on a recent intel machine and DSL connect should take less than > 2 minuets. Visit the following URL : http://developer.apple.com/mac/ >From the Apple Developer Mac website, download Xcode 3 for Snow Leopard. You >may need to sign in to the Apple Developer site, using either your Apple ID or >ADC login details. If you do not have an Apple ID or ADC member ship then >signing up for an Apple ID is free. Essentially, the error you are receiving is due to not having a compiler and other related developer tools installed on your system. Following the default Xcode 3 for Snow Leopard installation procedure will install all the required tools. Once you have the developer tools installed, follow the rsync 3.0.7 compilation instructions on the LBackup website : http://www.lbackup.org/developer/rsync_hfs _______________________________________________ http://www.lbackup.org lbackup-discussion mailing list lbackup-discussion@lists.connect.homeunix.com http://lists.connect.homeunix.com/listinfo/lbackup-discussion
