Apache HTTP Server
Platform specific notes:
------------------------
Darwin (OS X):
Apache 2.0 relies heavily on the use of autoconf and libtool to provide
a build environment. Darwin provides these tools, but they are
an earlier release, and for the most part, do not work well.
If you are interested in developing under Darwin, we recommend
that you obtain and install replacement versions of what are
normally installed on Darwin (and OS X, as of v10.1.4). If you
build your own versions of autoconf 2.52 and libtool 1.4.2, be
aware that there are some Darwin specific patchs to the official
code that still must be applied for them to fully work. A useful
page to check out is:
http://fink.sourceforge.net/doc/porting/libtool.php
Pier Fumagalli also provides pre-built Darwin packages of the
patched autoconf and libtool suites, available at:
http://www.apache.org/~pier/macosx/
You will note that GNU libtool should actually be installed as
glibtool, to avoid conflict with a Darwin program of the same
name. Pier's packages have this change already. All files are
installed under /usr/local/ so to use these versions, be sure that
/usr/local/bin is earlier in your PATH.
There have been some reports that autoconf 2.52 prevents Apache's
build system from correctly handling passing multi-value envvars
to the build system (eg: CFLAGS="-g -O3" ./configure), causing
errors. Use of bash does not seem to help in this situation. If
this affects you, downgrading to autoconf 2.13 (which is installed
on Darwin) will help.
