Hi
I have been able to compile and run this version “Percona-Server-5.6.14-rel62.0” on my imac running 10.6.8.
I used gcc version 4.6.0 from xcode, cmake version 2.8.11.2, zlib-1.2.8 and have it running with this message:-
2013-10-29 20:55:54 3573 [Note] InnoDB: Percona XtraDB (https://www.percona.com) 5.6.14-60.3 started; log sequence number 1626077.
I got a number of “has no symbols” while linking static libraries like libstrings.a, libmysys.a, libinnobase.a and others including libmysqlclient.a

I have sent you the output for libmysqlclient.a (for brevity), let me know if you need the output for others too.

Let me know if I can help in any other way. Regards

Thanks for the post, A.J., however our discussion forums are the best place to ask a detailed question like yours. Here’s the URL to the Percona Server forum: https://www.percona.com/forums/questions-discussions/mysql-and-percona-server

Seems like the source for the debian packages on your repo server is still 5.6.13.

Thanks for getting it fixed Hrovje, much appreciated.
