gEDA-user: Mac OS X 10.4: GNU MP required by guile-1.8.1 ..

[Andy Peters <devel@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I'm trying to build the latest gEDA code from the git repository on  
my Intel OS X box, and I don't have guile-1.8 installed.  So I  
downloaded the sources for guile-1.8.1 and did the usual ./configure,  
which failed because it could not find GNU MP.

So I grabbed the sources for GMP from GNU, did the ./configure, which  
succeeded, then did a make, which also succeeded, then finally did  
the recommended make check, which failed.

Further checking on the GMP page (http://gmplib.org) shows a Status  
from 04 May 2006: "GMP does not build on MacInteltosh machines.  No  
fix planned for GMP 4.x."

Oh, great.  So I can't build guile because I can't trust GMP.  So  
nobody uses guile on Intel Macs?  Is there a workaround??
