Hi all,
I have read the previous "Snow Leopard Anyone" thread https://iraf.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=88966 and it helped greatly with building a number of the external packages (finder gmisc guiapps mscred). When I went to build[b:561973f243] [color=blue:561973f243]fitsutil[/color:561973f243] [/b:561973f243]I found that I had to edit the mkpkg file as a part of the code is built in c, not in xc. I added the -m32 flag to the cc lines and was then successful. [color=blue:561973f243]relink:
$update libpkg.a
$omake x_fxutil.x $link x_fxutil.o libpkg.a -lmef -ldbc -lxtools -o xx_fitsutil.e
!cc -c $(HSI_CF) -m32 fgwrite.c fgread.c checksum.c kwdb.c
!cc -m32 fgwrite.o kwdb.o -o fgwrite.e
!cc -m32 fgread.o kwdb.o checksum.o -o fgread.e
!rm fgwrite.o fgread.o kwdb.o checksum.o

Now, however I am stymied as to what to do. When I try to build the [b:561973f243][color=red:561973f243]nmisc[/color:561973f243][/b:561973f243] package I get a lot of library errors from the system libraries that are a part of the download from iraf.noao.edu.

So, do you have any ideas as to what I need to do to get this working?

The simplest solution is to just use the prebuilt binaries (which you can get from https://iraf.net/ftp/iraf/extern/nmisc-bin.macintel.tar.gz)Basically, there is an incompatibility with building packages on 10.6 systems with iraf system libraries built on earlier systems (the system we release were built on Tiger for binary compatbility, I'm not sure if SciSoft rebuilds the binaries or not). Part of your problem however may just be that the "-m32" is a GCC flag and not an XC flag. You can either escape this on the command-line as "-/m32" or else edit the hlib$mkpkg.inc file and add "-m32" to the XFLAGS and LFLAGS for the 'macintel' architecture and it will be done automatically for anything built with mkpkg. As I said though, you may still get errors, but this is how the flag can be added.-Mike

Mike,
Aha! So that is where the binaries for macintel live! I had been looking at iraf.noao.edu for them, and not finding them which is why I was building. Old habits die hard. Thanks for the pointer to the downloads. For the record, I had made the XFLAGS and LFLAGS changes to the mkpkg.inc file. And I had tried to rebuild the base IRAF system from scratch too, but there are problems with the system libraries. As the pre-built binaries work, I will let it go for now. Thanks Again
