[ptx] Compiling Hugin on OSX/intel

[Brett Elliott]

Oliver (and others interested),

I've managed to compile libpano12 on my Intel based iMac.  Here are  
the things I've learned:

For the jpeg library:
make install doesn't install the libraries.  For that you must run  
make install-lib

For libpano12:
Once I did that, I went over to the libpano12 directory and copied  
the makefile.osx to Makefile.
I ran make.
It complained about my libjpeg.a being out of date.
I executed: ranlib /usr/local/lib/libjpeg.a
At this point, you could run configure, or just use the Makefile from  
makefile.osx.  I decided to run configure, just incase!
I executed: make
I executed: sudo make install

All appears well.

As an aside:
As I understand it, the configure script determines if libraries are  
present by trying to compile a small program.  In this case, seeing  
the output of the failed compile gave the answer directly (it said  
something like "run ranlib"), however the configure script hid that  
output.  Is there a switch somewhere that one could flip to see the  
compiler errors and warnings when running configure?  Is there a log  
kept someplace already?

Best of luck,
Brett
