New issue 218 by [email protected]: Mac OS/X install fails
http://code.google.com/p/memcached/issues/detail?id=218
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download version 1.4.6 or above.
2. Follow instructions at
https://wincent.com/wiki/Installing_memcached_1.4.1_on_Mac_OS_X_10.6_Snow_Leopard
(this is: configure & make)
3. The configure script fails.
What is the expected output?
- Configure ends correctly.
What do you see instead?
checking for library containing pthread_create... no
configure: error: Can't enable threads without the POSIX thread library.
What version of the product are you using?
Configure works correctly on 1.4.5, but fails on 1.4.6 and above
On what operating system?
Darwin hostname 10.8.0 Darwin Kernel Version 10.8.0: Tue Jun 7 16:33:36
PDT 2011; root:xnu-1504.15.3~1/RELEASE_I386 i386
(Mac OS/X Snow Leopard)
Please provide any additional information below.
I imagine the configure script was changed in 1.4.6 and does not work
anymore on Mac OS/X.
On Mac OS/X there's no need to specify the pthread library: it's included
in the linker's default library set.
