17 ldns is mainly developed on Linux and FreeBSD. It is regularly tested to
18 compile on other systems like Solaris and Mac OS X.
21 - OpenSSL (Optional, but needed for features like DNSSEC)
22 - libpcap (Optional, but needed for examples/ldns-dpa)
23 - (GNU) libtool (in OSX, that's glibtool, not libtool)
30 4. gmake (it needs gnu make to compile, on systems where GNU make is the
31 default you can just use 'make')
33 6. Optional. (cd examples; ./configure; gmake), make example programs included.
34 7. Optional. (cd drill; ./configure; gmake; gmake install), to build drill.
36 You can configure and compile it in a separate build directory.
39 There are some examples and dns related tools in the examples/ directory.
40 These can be built with:
42 2. ./configure [--with-ldns=<path to ldns installation or build>]
46 Drill can be built with:
48 2. ./configure [--with-ldns=<path to ldns installation or build>]
51 Note that you need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH if you want to run the binaries
52 and you have not installed the library to a system directory. You can use
53 the make target all-static for the examples to run them if you don't want to
57 * Building from subversion repository
59 If you are building from the repository you will need to have (gnu)
60 autotools like libtool and autoreconf installed. A list of all the commands
61 needed to build everything can be found in README.svn. Note that the actual
62 commands may be a little bit different on your machine. Most notable, you'll need to run libtoolize (or glibtoolize), if you skip this step, you'll get an error about missing config.sub.
65 ldns is developed by the ldns team at NLnet Labs. This team currently

83 IFORMATION FOR SPECIFIC OPERATING SYSTEMS
87 For MACOSX 10.4 and later, it seems that you have to set the
88 MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET environment variable to 10.4 before running
89 make. Apparently it defaults to 10.1.
91 This appears to be a known problem in 10.2 to 10.4, see:
92 http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2001/qa1233.html
98 In Solaris multi-architecture systems (that have both 32-bit and
99 64-bit support), it can be a bit taxing to convince the system to
100 compile in 64-bit mode. Jakob Schlyter has kindly contributed a build
101 script that sets the right build and link options. You can find it in
102 contrib/build-solaris.sh
