Dear Gretl Community,

I'm trying for the first time build Gretl on my MacOS. When I execute
the
command ./configure I get an error:

"Please install GMP and then reconfigure gretl.
GMP is available from http://gmplib.org/"

I already have GMP installed (using Brew). How can I fix this?

You'll probably have to specify where your GMP installation is, using the
configure flag --with-gmp-prefix=<wherever>.

Thanks Allin! But now there is another problem. After the command:

./configure --prefix=/Users/henrique/Desktop/gretl-dev
--with-gmp-prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/gmp/6.1.1
--with-mpfr-prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/mpfr/3.1.5

I get:

gretlcli.c:437:5: error: use of undeclared identifier 'rl_done'
   rl_done = 1;
   ^
1 error generated.
make[1]: *** [gretlcli.o] Error 1
make: *** [cli] Error 2

I guess that either (a) if you have the GNU readline library installed you
need to flag where that is, via

--with-readline-prefix=<somewhere>

or (b) you may disable readline support in gretlcli by

--without-readline

After

<command>
./configure --prefix=/Users/henrique/Desktop/gretl-dev --without-readline
</command>

And

<command>
make
</command>

I get

<output>
make -C share
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
make -C xdg
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
</output>

You might want to check that the whole build is coherent by doing "make clean" first, then "make".

Thanks for persevering with an independent build on OS X!

Who needs to thank you it's me for your patience and kindness help ;-)

Thanks, all part of the service!

One simple question arises on my mind just now: What I expect to achieve
after building? I know that isn't a Gretl.app. But it will generate a GUI
or CLI version os Gretl?

If all goes well, you should get both the CLI program, gretlcli, and the GUI one, gretl.

Allin
