Re: Building Kannel Docs on Mac OSX Leopard

Hi Alejandro,

You probably should simply indicate the "alternative" location of  
docbook under /opt instead of /usr/share or /usr/local/share as the  
Linux and Unix world would expect. "Ports" and "Fink" put the stuff  
elsewhere. And those types of problems are exactly the reason why I  
don't use them and rather go and compile the stuff for /usr/local. I  
also sometimes had issues if you compile comerical software that you  
out of a sudden end up with dependencies you don't want (like linking  
libz to /opt even there's one coming with the system).

docbook is not my preferred tool, so I have never installed that one  
from source and I never build kannel's doc but leave the buildboot do  
it. Or have a virtual machine under Linux do it...
