I’m not sure if it’s obsolete or not. I mainly just put together the SH script so I could easily deploy RRD on the production box after figuring it out in my test environment.

Also not sure why the diff would fail. I just downloaded the SH script, and it works fine for me. =/ What if you just run `curl -O http://www.staze.org/svn/staze/patches/cairo_10.6.diff` ?

staze,

just wanted to give it a try, but i get still 404 on the cairo diff file.
btw (as always) there are tons of newer versions of almost all used libraries… especially cairo has as of version 1.8.10 listed fixes for compiling on openBSD platform; maybe you could look into this (does it make your diff obsolete?).

thx.

how could i without? actual version is 3.2.2; maybe we see soon 4.0, i guess?

all the provided tools like amavis, clamav, spamassassin need to be updated anyway and so the journey starts.
well, one question: did you ever try to compile, configure and use dspam on the server?
sometimes i’m longing for a simple, robust spam-solution, which doesn’t need to be ticked together.

I run server, and it works fine. Shouldn’t modify anything, as it all gets stuck in /usr/local. Just make sure you have Xcode installed. =)

@staze

hey staze,

thx. for quick reply and fix; got the file and the site seems to work ok again,
well, do you run on the Server OS or Client OS?
i got the server running’ and would like to get RRDTool running, but am not sure, if it kills/modifies something vital on the setup.
