Building Apps from Source on Mac OS X 10.3
Had some other issues in my transition from Mac OS 10.2 to 10.3. I should preface this, though, by saying that I've been running Panther on my 15 in. AI Powerbook since the week it came out without any of these sorts of problems. Granted, I don't do near as much compiling, etc. on my Powerbook as I do on my dev machine. But, anyways ...
In the process of building MySQL and Python 2.3.4 from source on the new machine, I ran into several errors at different stages (both configure and make) complaining about the inability to locate some specific library. MySQL couldn't seem to find bundle1.o; and python couldn't locate crt1.o.
After doing a search for those files, turns out that they were installed under the "/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.3.0.sdk/usr/lib/" directory. Why there and not under "/usr/lib" I'll never know. After I copied the appropriate libs from there to "/usr/lib", though, everything was happy.
