I checked out clutter from svn, running OS X 10.5 PowerPC.

Getting things up and running was not entirely a breeze. This message is to help others, and/or to report bugs.


1. ./autogen.sh on OS X

It gives an error; however, isn't ./autogen.sh supposed to just create the configure etc. files. Now it seems to me, it's actually running them, and failing because of not having --with-flavour=osx parameter.

        ./autogen.sh
                ...
        checking for XCOMPOSITE extension >= 0.4... found
        checking GL/gl.h usability... no
        checking GL/gl.h presence... no
        checking for GL/gl.h... no
        configure: error: Unable to locate required GL headers

This is a bug, right?


2. ./configure  --with-flavour=osx  [--includedir=/sw/include]

This works nice. I'm not sure if '--includedir' was actually even needed; that's where fink installed libraries live.


3. Documentation

TODO from svn seems WAAAAAY out of date:

<<
$LastChangedDate: 2007-12-24 14:13:31 +0200 (Ma, 24 Jou 2007) $

<<

README:
<<
Clutter it an open source software library for creating fast, visually
<<

Find the fault?=)


4. If things don't work out

The following fink packages are probably required:

        sudo fink install glibc2-dev pango1-xft2-ft219-dev

It shouldn't take long that someone makes a clutter package to fink itself. Then all that would be needed is:

        sudo gink install clutter
