OS X Homebrew: Build FreeTDS from HEAD (gitorious)

Posted on by

Here’s a pull request I just submitted to homebrew to make it possible to build FreeTDS from master on its gitorious repo:

https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/pull/21309

Example of using it:

$ brew install freetds --HEAD --universal
==> Cloning https://git.gitorious.org/freetds/freetds.git
Updating /Library/Caches/Homebrew/freetds--git
==> autoreconf -i
==> ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/freetds/HEAD --with-openssl=/usr/bin --with-tdsver=7.1 --mandir=/usr/local/Cellar/freetds/HEAD/share/man
==> make
==> make install
🍺  /usr/local/Cellar/freetds/HEAD: 63 files, 3.6M, built in 67 seconds

$ brew test freetds --HEAD -v
Testing freetds
==> /usr/local/Cellar/freetds/HEAD/bin/tsql -C
/usr/local/Cellar/freetds/HEAD/bin/tsql -C
Compile-time settings (established with the "configure" script)
                            Version: freetds v0.92.dev.20130718
             freetds.conf directory: /usr/local/Cellar/freetds/HEAD/etc
     MS db-lib source compatibility: no
        Sybase binary compatibility: no
                      Thread safety: yes
                      iconv library: yes
                        TDS version: 7.1
                              iODBC: yes
                           unixodbc: no
              SSPI "trusted" logins: no
                           Kerberos: no

Pretty simple:

I also added support for a test and for doing a universal build.

Justniffer (http://justniffer.sourceforge.net/) – A very cool little TCP sniffer specialized for capturing HTTP traffic.

Example invocations:

$ justniffer -i en1 -p "port 80"
10.64.168.204 - - [22/Dec/2011:11:45:03 -0800] "GET /wiki/Brew HTTP/1.1" 200 23163 "" "curl/7.19.7 (universal-apple-darwin10.0) libcurl/7.19.7 OpenSSL/0.9.8r zlib/1.2.3"

$ justniffer-grab-http-traffic -d . -i en1

The latest growlnotify in homebrew (1.3) fails on OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), because it’s a Lion-only binary.

marca@SCML-MarcA:/usr/local$ growlnotify 
dyld: Symbol not found: _kSecRandomDefault
  Referenced from: /usr/local/bin/growlnotify
  Expected in: /System/Library/Frameworks/Security.framework/Versions/A/Security
 in /usr/local/bin/growlnotify
Trace/BPT trap

Here’s how to fix it (thanks to https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/issues/8316):
