>Making Bugzilla work on windows is still a very painful processes.
The Bugzilla Team is working to make it easier, but that goal is not
considered a top priority. If you wish to run Bugzilla, we still
recommend doing so on a Unix based system such as GNU/Linux. As of this
writing, all members of the Bugzilla team and all known large installations
run on Unix based systems.
</P
><P
>If after hearing all that, you have enough pain tolerance to attempt
installing Bugzilla on Win32, here are some pointers.
Because this is a development version of the guide, these instructions
are subject to change without notice. In fact, the Bugzilla Team hopes
they do as we would like to have Bugzilla resonabally close to "out of
the box" compatibility by the 2.18 release.

>There are a lot of common libraries and utilities out there that
Apple did not include with Mac OS X, but which run perfectly well on it.
The GD library, which Bugzilla needs to do bug graphs, is one of
these.</P
><P
>The easiest way to get a lot of these is with a program called
Fink, which is similar in nature to the CPAN installer, but installs
common GNU utilities. Fink is available from
<A

TARGET="_top"
>http://sourceforge.net/projects/fink/</A
>.</P
><P
>Follow the instructions for setting up Fink. Once it's installed,
you'll want to run the following as root:
<B
CLASS="command"
>fink install gd</B
>
</P
><P
>It will prompt you for a number of dependencies, type 'y' and hit
enter to install all of the dependencies. Then watch it work.</P
><P
>To prevent creating conflicts with the software that Apple installs
by default, Fink creates its own directory tree at /sw where it installs
most of the software that it installs. This means your libraries and
headers for libgd will be at /sw/lib and /sw/include instead of /usr/lib
and /usr/local/include. Because of these changed locations for the
libraries, the Perl GD module will not install directly via CPAN, because it
looks for the specific paths instead of getting them from your
environment. But there's a way around that :-)</P

>Instead of typing
<SPAN

at the
<TT

prompt, type

This should go through the motions of downloading the latest version of
the GD module, then it will open a shell and drop you into the build
directory. Apply <A
HREF="../sgml/gd-makefile.patch"
TARGET="_top"
>this patch</A
>
to the Makefile.PL file (save the
patch into a file and use the command
<B
CLASS="command"
>patch < patchfile</B

module:
