The release tarball won't build directly.

I think there is a bug in python 2.3.5 as released by Apple, because:

I reran the make in gcc 3.3, and got the same error. If I hand edit

The build completes.

Sort of -- I tried building with debug set to 'no', and I got:

at that point I reset debug to 'yes' and ran make again (without
cleaning up...) and it completed.

rkMacPak.py also needs some attention, as it does not accommodate Qt
built with threading support (libqt-mt.3.dylib).

Having made the above changes, Rekall seems to work on my system. I
haven't done much, but it does launch and successfully open and edit
a mySQL database. Still no custom icon in the Apps directory, though.

MacOSX 10.4.2, Qt 3.3.5

Grrmble .....

10.3 (python 2.3) gave:

['-u __dummy -u _PyMac_Error -framework System -framework Python -framework
CoreServices -framework Foundation']

so it looks like it is fsck'd :(

rkMacPak.py also needs some attention, as it does not accommodate Qt
built with threading support (libqt-mt.3.dylib).
I'm in the middle of a big hack on the build system so I can do multiple
builds on the same tree (kde,linux-qt3,mac and win) - i'll fix up rkMacPak to
take notice of the config output.

Could you email me the rkConfig.py you get?

Thanx
Mike
