Re: MacOSX bus error, snort-2.8.3.1 install (James Lay)

["John Kraus" <johnkraus3 () gmail com>]

Mr. Lay,

Thanks very much for your suggestion.  As my attached installation output
and script seem to indicate, I think I have correctly set the environmental
variables, LD_TWOLEVEL_NAMESPACE=1 and MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.5.  (I
have updated the zip file from my previous post, by the way.)  Nevertheless,
the bus error persists.

Here is a summary of warnings that show up in my installation output:

spo_unified2.c:242: warning: 'write_pkt_buffer_mpls' defined but not used

ranlib: warning for library: libintsnort.a the table of contents is empty
(no object file members in the library define global symbols)

ranlib: warning for library: libtarget_based.a the table of contents is
empty (no object file members in the library define global symbols)

Plus NUMEROUS instances of:

libtool: install: warning: remember to run `libtool --finish
/usr/local/lib/snort_dynamicpreprocessor'

To reiterate, for those who missed my previous post, I am encountering a bus
error in my effort to install Snort 2.8.3.1 on a Mac.  For further details,
please see my zipped and attached installation script, output and snort.conf
files.  I have tried suggestions from prior posts to this list on this
subject to no avail.  Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

John Kraus
