Building binaries

[torifile]

I just got an Intel iMac (woo hoo!!) and there are no pre-built binaries of PHP or mySQL. I'm thinking about building them myself, and while Marc Liyange finishes his universal binaries, complete with all the good stuff he puts in, I thought I'd host a pre-built binary. Of course, I have *no* idea how to do this or if it's even worth it, but if it's doable, how would I go about it? Any ideas?

Download source code
Compile following instructions for OSX
Test extensively
Put online
Profit!


If you haven't done this before, you should perhaps not put the binaries online - I wouldn't want to offer something that I'm not entirely sure about. But it's probably an interesting exercise.

I've built stuff before, but how do I get a binary installer out of it?

MySQL already has a binary for Intel based Macs I think under Mac OS X Downloads.

It's really quite easy. A simple make, make install will do the trick.

However, choosing what to build into it will be up to you ;)

Bastard. ;) I guess I'll poke around and see what I can find. :)
