Re: [Pound Mailing List] pound 2.7 and 2.8 won't compile on FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE

Hi Scott,

> GIT...

Please follow these steps:

1. Install the necessary packages

   sudo apt-get install gcc make autoconf automake libssl-dev libpcre3-dev openssl

2. Clone the repo
   
   git clone https://github.com/graygnuorg/pound

3. Change to the source directory

   cd pound

4. Bootstrap the project

   autoreconf -f -i -s

5. Configure it:

   ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc

This will install pound into its usual location (/usr/sbin). If you omit
--prefix, it will be installed to /usr/local/sbin.

6. Build it:

   make

This can take some time due to generation of Diffie-Hellman parameters.
With newer gcc you would get a bunch of warnings like:

  warning: ignoring return value of 'read'
  warning: ignoring return value of 'write'

Ignore them.
  
7. Install pound:

   sudo make install

Best regards,
Sergey
