Hello- I have a novice question, but I couldn't find anything in the
documentation or the archives. I am getting an error on make in max osx
10.3.4. i am logged in as root. i read in the known problems with OSes that
one line in the libtool should be edited for osx so I think that might be my
problem. unfortunately, the directions seem to be a bit outdated- they say
to edit a line that is different in the version I have but I did delete out
the variable $deplibs after i started getting these errors. That did not
help. Any ideas?

this is what the docs say to change: (i'm not sure how i would apply this
patch but as i said i simply deleted the var i thought it might not like)

This patch was contributed by <Daniel Fazekas>, and has been used
successfully by three people that we know of. As you can see, the only
effect is to remove \$deplibs from line 202.

Thanks a lot
