Has anyone compiled it on OSX? There are some instructions here:
http://pad.au.com/%7Emindsnar/macosx.html

make gives me:

/usr/bin/ld: table of contents for archive: /usr/local/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.a is out of date; rerun ranlib(1) (can't load from it)
make: *** [snort] Error 1

So I tried:

# ranlib /usr/local/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.a
ranlib: file: /usr/local/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.a(my_pthread.o) has no symbols
ranlib: file: /usr/local/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.a(my_thr_init.o) has no symbols
ranlib: file: /usr/local/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.a(thr_mutex.o) has no symbols
ranlib: file: /usr/local/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.a(bmove.o) has no symbols

Then make gives me:

/usr/bin/ld: Undefined symbols:
_compress
_uncompress
make: *** [snort] Error 1

Am I making progress or a mess?
