Subject: compiling pine for mac os x with ssl

I have been trying to compile pine for mac os x with ssl for over
a week and I'm finally giving up and asking for help. Could
someone please post step-by-step instructions for how to do this.
I think part of my problem is that I have downloaded and
installed Josh Larios procompiled pine for mac os x with ssl (and
it worked!) and I've also installed OpenSSL via the Mac OS X
latest upgrade and also via Fink. So I'm afraid that these 3 SSLs
are causing problems with each other (or at least Pine's build is
confused). Also, if it matters, I'm using the latest Mulberry
with SSL and so I have yet another set of Certs in the Mulberry
directory.

I can do a

 ./build osx

with no problem. It's just when I do

 ./build SSLDIR=/System/Library/OpenSSL osx

that it doesn't work.

My conclusion from all this frustration is that 1) not very many
people have compiled pine for mac os x with ssl and 2) this is
way to hard for normal human beings.

Thank you very much,
Nancy

> a week and I'm finally giving up and asking for help. Could

I took notes the last time I did this. They're now woefully out of date
(November of 2001) and I'm about to go through and do the whole thing over
again to see what's changed, but you're welcome to read what I've got
right now: http://staff.washington.edu/jdlarios/osx-pine-notes.html

I'll have new notes up for pine 4.44 and OS X 10.1.5 shortly. My problem
is that I'm never sure if the OS X powerbook I'm using has libraries and
headers installed that weren't part of the basic OS, so my instructions
work for me, but may not work for people who haven't added the same
things.

Anyway. I'll let you know when I've got a new version of that document.

Thank you for those notes, which I had read before I posted my
plea for help. I link to them, and your page with Pine and SSL
packaged for OS X, on my main Pine page, in this section

 <http://www.ii.com/internet/messaging/pine/#osx>

You are the first in the list! Yours, and all the other pages in
that section, are ones I that I've used to try to figure out how
to compile it myself. If anyone knows any other Pine OS X pages,
please tell me.

> Anyway. I'll let you know when I've got a new version of that document.

That would be great. If you need someone to test your newly
compiled Pine or your new notes, I'd be happy to do that. It
would be great if you could compile in the option to use a
PASSFILE -- that is the main reason that I don't want to use the
version of Pine that's on your site.

Thanks again,
Nancy
