Folks,

In answer to the error "libgsm 32-bit development files not found," after completing the libtool command, you must copy the library to /usr/lib.  "cp lib/* /usr/lib"  would do nicely.

HTH,

Also...major problem with this command that I found was that in terminal you won't get an error message but this doesn't work unless you have read/write access to your /usr/lib directory which some people don't have. Therefore:


/usr/lib is owned by root. You have to be a system administrator AND use sudo to write/modify/delete from this directory. It should be the same for any version of UNIX with this directory.

Thus to install the library you can either use /usr/lib or /opt/local/lib (this is PREFERRED as this is not a baseline library included with the operating system).

In my case, since I use Fink to install, I use /sw/lib and added it to the Library path statement.

How you solve this is up to you, but I recommend against adding files to /usr/lib unless they came with or are a part of MacOSX. Symbolic links are excluded....
