macOS Error Compiling mimetic

[kainjow]

I'm trying to compile mimetic, a C++ library for extracting MIME info out of emails and such.

But I get the following errors (it looks like this is where it starts):

ld: warning multiple definitions of symbol ___eprintf
/usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin8/4.0.1/libgcc.a(_eprintf.o) private external definition of ___eprintf in section (__TEXT,__text)

/usr/bin/libtool: internal link edit command failed

make[1]: *** [check-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [check-recursive] Error 1

I'm using just the basic ./configure and make, but that's where it spits out errors (it goes a while before the errors show).

Any ideas? Maybe someone else could try compiling it...

Also, does anyone know how to compile this source directly into a Cocoa application? I'm kinda newb at generic compiling of *nix stuff.

Thanks in advance.

Got the answer

I guess somehow there's a problem with the code and GCC 4, so you have to use GCC 3.3. This was what I used and it worked!

env MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.3 ./configure
env MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.3 make
