[avr-chat] Re: How to compile AVRDUDE for Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.3

[Dean Hall]

It looks like you are trying to include a file from the readline  
library which would only occur if HAVE_LIBREADLINE were true -- and  
the compiler cannot find the include file in the expected location.   
Running "./configure" should have detected that the readline library  
wasn't found; but that seems not to be the case.  Also, check to see  
if you have the file the compiler is looking for; it should be at / 
usr/include/readline/readline.h  (maybe it is somewhere else in your  
tree?).  A fix?  uhhh... rerun ./configure ?  Learn about the  
configure and make system?  (Hopefully someone else will have a more  
complete solution).

Once you get past your current issue (and maybe others), you'll have  
trouble with the "tex" issue.  Here's a work-around for that:

Do a make; make will fail if you haven't installed tex; ignore for now.
Copy the doc/avrdude-html directory to a safe place.
Edit the Makefile to remove 'doc' from SUBDIRS (in 2 places?).
Do a make again; this should complete w/o error.
sudo make install

results:
        /usr/local/bin/avrdude
        /usr/local/etc/avrdude.conf
