Building MacGated for BeagleBone Black
Do these steps directly on the BeagleBone Black for easier setup.
Download the packages to install:
Install prerequisites:
sudo apt-get install libdb5.1-dev libwrap0-dev
Build libatalk:
We have to build libatalk (included with netatalk) which is a static library that MacGated needs. You can still use Ubuntu's distribution of netatalk 2.2.x with the final setup, but we're going to have to build our own libatalk.
Apply patch:
- In include/atalk/acl.h on line 56, change “#define O_NETATALK_ACL” to “#define O_NETATALK_ACL 0”
Actually build it:
cd netatalk-2.2.5 ./configure --enable-ddp cd libatalk make
The “make” command takes a while to complete, especially since you're doing it directly on the BBB. Technically it's possible to cross-compile, but getting library dependnecies ready would be a huge pain.
Build MacGated:
The Makefile will need to be patched to point to your built libatalk. In these example changes, assume that the netatalk source directory “netatalk-2.2.5” is at the same level as the macgated source directory.
Patch the Makefile
Add this line at the top:
LIBDIRS=-L../netatalk-2.2.5/libatalk/.libs
Add to CFLAGS:
-I ../netatalk-2.2.5/sys -I ../netatalk-2.2.5/include
Now build it:
make
This should give you all the binaries you need! Check out the “init” script for details about how to use it.
