A Newbie question about make and the term.c file

2011-10-08 Thread Peter Schrock
I am trying to install mysql 5.1.59 on my ppc running os x and I get this
error message in the term.c file.

cc1: warnings being treated as errors
term.c: In function ‘term_set’:
term.c:946: warning: passing argument 1 of ‘tgetflag’ discards qualifiers
from pointer target type

I can't figure out what it means or how to fix it. Help please.

I can't help directly with the error message (the warning seems fairly
harmless), but may I inquire why you are building MySQL instead of using one
of the prepared binaries?  Compiling under OS/X can be pretty harrowing.

I can understand your point, however, as stated, I am using a ppc
architecture and am not afforded the luxury of binaries in the most up to
date versions. I know using 5.1.59 isn't the most up to date, but I was also
having issues with the most current version. I might start with the most
current binary for ppc and then try upgrading.
About the error, I am sure it is harmless, but I can't get past it, which
means I can't use mysql.
