Re: Building Kannel Docs on Mac OSX Leopard

Andreas,

Thanks for the follow-up.

I've solved the .dsl problem by patching configure.in to look into
/opt/local and running autoconf again.

I'm still having problems with jade, which is not available as a MacPort and
doesn't seem to build on Leopard when compiled from source. I'm looking into
it right now (I'm not sure if it can be completely replaced with jadetex or
any other solution), will post a complete solution if I find one.

Regards,

Alejandro
