[Qgis-developer] Bison 2.3 error When Building QGIS for Snow Leopard

[William Kyngesburye]

I found that cmake still uses the system bison even if a different one is first in the PATH.  You need to force cmake to use yours with a configure option:

-D BISON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/local/bin/bison

assuming you installed bison 2.4 in /usr/local.
