> When configuring the server I get this error:
> {code:none}
> configure: error: "libpng is required for writing png messages"
> {code}
> But I do have libpng installed:
> {code:none}
> brew install libpng
> Warning: libpng-1.6.26 already installed
> {code}
> Is OSX a supported platform? It would be nice if the README had a bit more information on how to compile and what the dependancies are. For instance I think the instruction "Before compiling, you need to have compiled and installed libguac, the core Guacamole library” may possibly be misleading?

> The guacamole-server README is out-of-date and does not correctly cover the current build process. The actual required/optional dependencies are listed only in the manual (http://guacamole.incubator.apache.org/doc/gug/installing-guacamole.html), while the README lists dependencies which are actually now part of the guacamole-server build (libguac).
> If the README is to be "quick and to-the-point documentation" covering building Guacamole, as it explicitly states it is intended to be, this needs to be fixed.
