Ticket 160: ossp uuid 1.6.0 fails in 'make check' on OS X 10.4.10

Hi.

I tried to install ossp uuid 1.6.0 on my OS X-machine.

'make check' failed when checking the Perl bindings. See the attached log for additional details.

Any help is highly appreciated -- I need uuid for beta testing the upcoming PostgreSQL 8.3 release...

Thanks,

Jörg Beyer

2007-Oct-13 14:32:08 by anonymous:
'make check' broke with error 2/test_dynamic_error, due to a missing dynamic library, '/usr/local/lib/libuuid.16.dylib'.

Further investigation (especially a close look at the log and the build directory) brought to light that ossp-uuid's 'make check' tried to load a library that couldn't be in place at first pass -- simply because it didn't exist and had yet to be installed. By ossp-uuid itself. That's what I'd call a circular reference ;-) (Nothing wrong with OS X or its DynaLoader, btw.)

Bottom line: run [sudo] make install, then run make check again, and you will see that everything is fine, at least so far.

Hope this helps, cheers Jörg Beyer
