Bug 194347 - Updating MacOS X hints to specify that the GD patch is no longer required (when using the gd2 package) and also recommend using fink to install expat.

you'll want to use it to install the gd2 package.

<para>To prevent creating conflicts with the software that Apple installs
by default, Fink creates its own directory tree at /sw where it installs
most of the software that it installs. This means your libraries and
headers for libgd will be at /sw/lib and /sw/include instead of /usr/lib
and /usr/local/include. Because of these changed locations for the
libraries, the Perl GD module will not install directly via CPAN, because it
looks for the specific paths instead of getting them from your
environment. But there's a way around that :-)</para>

<quote>install GD</quote>
at the

This should go through the motions of downloading the latest version of
the GD module, then it will open a shell and drop you into the build
directory. Apply <ulink url="../xml/gd-makefile.patch">this patch</ulink>
to the Makefile.PL file (save the
patch into a file and use the command
<command>patch &lt; patchfile</command>.)

<command>make</command>

<member>
<command>make test</command>
</member>
<member>
<command>make install</command>
</member>
enter to install all of the dependencies and then watch it work. You will
then be able to use <glossterm linkend="gloss-cpan">CPAN</glossterm> to
install the GD perl module.

<member>And don't forget to run
<command>exit</command>
<note>
<para>To prevent creating conflicts with the software that Apple
installs by default, Fink creates its own directory tree at
<filename class="directory">/sw</filename> where it installs most of
the software that it installs. This means your libraries and headers be
at <filename class="directory">/sw/lib</filename> and
<filename class="directory">/sw/include</filename> instead of
<filename class="directory">/usr/lib</filename> and
<filename class="directory">/usr/local/include</filename>. When the
Perl module config script asks where your libgd is, be sure to tell it
<filename class="directory">/sw/lib</filename>.

</simplelist>
<para>Also available via Fink is expat. Once running using fink to
install the expat package you will be able to install
XML::Parser using CPAN. There is one caveat. Unlike recent versions of
the GD module, XML::Parser doesn't prompt for the location of the
required libraries. When using CPAN, you will need to use the following
command sequence:
</para>
<screen>
# perl -MCPAN -e'look XML::Parser' <co id="macosx-look"/>
# perl Makefile.PL EXPATLIBPATH=/sw/lib EXPATINCPATH=/sw/include
# make; make test; make install <co id="macosx-make"/>
# exit <co id="macosx-exit"/>
</screen>
<calloutlist>
<callout arearefs="macosx-look macosx-exit">
<para>The look command will download the module and spawn a
new shell with the extracted files as the current working directory.
The exit command will return you to your original shell.
</para>
</callout>
<callout arearefs="macosx-make">
<para>You should watch the output from these make commands,
especially <quote>make test</quote> as errors may prevent XML::Parser
from functioning correctly with Bugzilla.
