<h3>Platform specific notes:<a name="Platform_specific_notes:"></a></h3>
<div class="section">
<h4>Mac OS/X:<a name="Mac_OSX:"></a></h4>
<p>APR and APR-Util are provided by the platform in Mac OS/X 10.5 and iODBC in 10.4.</p></div>
<div class="section">
<h4>Debian:<a name="Debian:"></a></h4>
<p>APR, APR-Util, gzip and zip may be installed by:</p>
<div class="source">
<pre>$ sudo apt-get install libapr1-dev libaprutil1-dev gzip zip</pre></div></div>
<div class="section">
<h4>FreeBSD:<a name="FreeBSD:"></a></h4>
<p>APR, APR-Util, gzip and zip may be installed from the ports collection by:</p>
<div class="source">
<pre># cd /usr/ports/archivers/zip
# make
# make install
# cd /usr/ports/archivers/gzip

<h4>Cygwin:<a name="Cygwin:"></a></h4>
<p>Install zip (used by RollingFileAppender) and sed (used to normalize output files for comparison in the unit tests). The prepackaged APR currently available from Cygwin has APR_HAS_THREADS == 0. Some appenders will not be available and some may operate with reduced functionality. There have been reports of building APR on Cygwin with threads enabled.</p></div>
<div class="section">
<h4>MinGW:<a name="MinGW:"></a></h4>
<p>Recent APR 1.2.x releases fail ./configure with a error of &quot;decision on anonymous shared memory failed&quot;. That issue has been fixed in the current APR SVN HEAD. The follow sequence worked with MSYS (with Python on Path):</p>
