Re: [squid-users] Looking for Build notes for OSX

Sure. You may want to rename the page from Fink to Mac OS X(Fink is
really just a package system, like FreeBSD ports).

That said, here's what I have...and apologies I don't know wiki very well.

---CUT---

Squid compiles on Mac OS X. However, there are some steps required
before following
the general build instructions.

Install Xcode
-----------------
1) From Mac OS X, run the "AppStore" application.
2) Locate "Xcode", Apple's development environment.
3) Install "Xcode".

Install Command-Line Tools
-------------------------------------
1) Launch "Xcode".
2) Open "Xcode | Preferences".
3) Bring up the "Downloads" tab.
4) Under "Components" click the "Install" button for "Command Line Tools".

Verify Command-Line Tools
-------------------------------------
1) Launch "Terminal", usually located in the "Utilities" folder under
"Applications".
2) Run "gcc --version". Manually verify this produces sane output.

From this point, the general build instructions should be all you need.

This part can be editorially removed, but may be helpful:

It's worth noting this platform doesn't support EUI, and that I
personally configured my squid with the configure option
"--with-aufs-threads=32" to reduce apparent I/O congestion.

Personal Build Steps
----------------------------
1) tar xf squid-3.3.2.tar.bz2
2) cd squid-3.3.2
3) ./configure --disable-eui --with-aufs-threads=32
4) make
5) sudo make install

P.S. The above also works just fine when run from either Mac OS X's
built-in X11 server(10.7 or less), or XQuartz(10.8).
