install samtools on Mac os 10.5.8

[wmlyh]

I'm trying to install samtools on mac os 10.5.8

after downloading the source code package, I did the following:

tar jxvf samtools-0.1.19.tar.bz2
cd samtools-0.1.19
make

But always got this error:

gcc -g -Wall -O2 -o samtools bam_tview.o bam_plcmd.o sam_view.o bam_rmdup.o bam_rmdupse.o bam_mate.o bam_stat.o bam_color.o bamtk.o kaln.o bam2bcf.o bam2bcf_indel.o errmod.o sample.o cut_target.o phase.o bam2depth.o padding.o bedcov.o bamshuf.o bam_tview_curses.o bam_tview_html.o libbam.a -Lbcftools -lbcf -lcurses -lm -lz -lpthread
Undefined symbols:

ld: symbol(s) not found
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [samtools] Error 1
make: *** [all-recur] Error 1

Anybody can help me?

Thanks a lot!

You probably need to install "zlib" library (if you have one then perhaps a newer version is needed see the thread above).
