openpgm isn't supported on osx

[lookfirst]

checking if the PGM extension is supported on this platform... configure: error: the PGM extension is not supported on system darwin10.4.0.

However, PGM does compile on OSX. I was even able to run their tests.

ZeroMQ is currently using OpenPGM 2.1 which does not have OSX support. It is planned for a future update with the update to OpenPGM 5. Note that Linux is the primary development platform and others will follow later.

You could try the development fork if you updated the Makefile for the OSX options, I've currently left it similar to the 2.0.x release with only Linux and Windows options, it needs to be updated for FreeBSD, Solaris, and OSX.

I ported 3 & 5 on a 2010 Mac mini with 10.6, there have been a couple of updates since but nothing should have broken inside OpenPGM.

So, I ended up just using an ubuntu vm on my mac. zeromq seems to be working just fine with openpgm 5.0.76. I didn't know about the 2.1 requirement. Could you please update the website with that information? http://www.zeromq.org/area:download

The ZeroMQ release bundles OpenPGM so it's fairly moot until the updates are pulled into master.

Master can now build on OS X with build patches,

Is this issue fixed of should I leave it open?

According to steve-o, it is fixed. I don't have time to test it. Sorry. Will close.
