Well, I've gotten kdelibs and parts of kdebase built as dynamic
libraries now. I can get a remote konsole from an OSX box! =)
But... now that I'm starting to work on building some of the more
modular bits of kdebase, I'm running into dl issues, and I'm not sure
where to go with it.
My biggest issue is I'm not familiar enough with the tools on OSX to
know how to best trace things. For example, I'm trying to start up
kate, but it says it's not finding an init method (here's the gdb
output):
---(snip!)---

---(snip!)---
Now, an nm on libkatepart.so shows me there is a text segment for it:
---(snip!)---
0002e38c T _init_libkatepart
U _insertCatalogue__7KLocaleRC7QString
U _insertChild__7QObjectPB0
---(snip!)---
...so where do I go from here? Is this an issue with the new dlcompat?
The bright side is, with some work, it looks like it's going to be
possible to get kde3 on OSX. When I can, I'll put the patches up that
it took to get to where I am. The main issue is a small libtool hack,
and then having to set a buttload of explicit libraries because of
apple's anal linker and indirect dylib access.
