[Lcdproc] LCDProc on OS X 10.5

[Topher Fangio]

Hello all,

I am currently working on an open source API written in Ruby that communica=
tes with LCDProc.
Actually, it's already mostly written and I just need to do some testing an=
d add a bit more
documentation and examples.

My problem is that I cannot seem to compile LCDProc 0.5.2 on OS X 10.5. (ED=
IT: I got it working,
see EDIT below) I have done the following:

./configure --enable-drivers=3Dcurses
make

It dies on make with the following error:

        then mv -f ".deps/eyebox.Tpo" ".deps/eyebox.Po"; else rm -f ".deps/=
eyebox.Tpo"; exit 1; fi
if gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../..  -I../.. -DSYSCONFDIR=3D\"/usr/local=
/etc\"   -Wall  -O3 -Wno-unused-function -MT machine_Darwin.o -MD -MP -MF "=
.deps/machine_Darwin.Tpo" -c -o machine_Darwin.o machine_Darwin.c; \
        then mv -f ".deps/machine_Darwin.Tpo" ".deps/machine_Darwin.Po"; el=
se rm -f ".deps/machine_Darwin.Tpo"; exit 1; fi
machine_Darwin.c:48:17: error: kvm.h: No such file or directory
make[3]: *** [machine_Darwin.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

>From what I have read, 10.5 completely removes kvm.h and so I was wondering=
 if there was any
particular reason that it was still in LCDProc and if it was needed (accord=
ing to this link
http://home.sandiego.edu/~epooch/cgi-bin/blosxom.cgi/tech/leds/GrowLCDproc1=
_3_5.writeback
it is not).

EDIT: I commented out the include statement (#include <kvm.h>) inside machi=
ne_Darwin.c and
everything compiled just fine. Any reason this cannot be fully removed from=
 LCDProc? At the very
least, how would I go about adding a note about this to the documentation?

Thanks!
