Hey guys!

I'm not able to compile the sources under Snow Leopard. I followed the tutorial from the README.osx file and everything works fine until Step 4. When I run ./bootstrap it says

Code:
Please (re)run configure...

But when I run ./configure it says this in the last line:

Code:
configure: error: Could not find a required library. Please see the README for your platform.

Here is the complete output

I'm not an expert in this kind of stuff. OK it seems there is at least one library missing. But which? Can someone give me a hint?

Thanks a lot!!!

it's rather obvious that libmad is the missing one, no?

libmad IS listed in README.osx as a macports depends

$ sudo port install libmad macosx_deployment_target=10.4

So if you did a configure and it reports libmad missing then you must have missed one or more steps and did not follow README.osx to the letter. Who know what else you missed. I suggest reviewing your macports install and make sure you have followed it or the build/runtime WILL break.
