I upgraded one of my machines to Tiger: unison-2.13 is available under
10.4-transitional, and it builds several versions of unison and
installs all of them at once (nice). (Takes a while to install, 123
dependencies to install first, and yes, I have the rogue
gnome-vfs2-ssl, see other thread, it doesn't seem to matter on my
setup...)
I then did the following:
1. copied the unison-2.13-x11 binary to my 10.3.9 machine and verified
that it runs OK (including the first gui pane).
2. synced the two archives I tried earlier in this thread, running the
unison-2.13-x11 gui on the 10.4.2 machine: both worked without any
hitches, so for me the glib2 error is gone in this version on 10.4.2.
[Note that "servercmd = bin/unison-2.13-x11" in the *.prf files is
useful here (if you put unison-2.13-x11 in ~/bin).]
I cannot test the unison-2.13-x11 gui any further on 10.3.9 for the
moment as my 10.4.2 machine is not visible on the Internet. I will
try tomorrow to a linux machine (which may throw up unrelated errors
so may not be a good test).
Don't know how you get unison-2.13 if you don't have Tiger though...
The latter point is THE problem... I don't have yet a Tiger machine...
Here is the way I did solve the problem recently...
I fetched and compiled unison 2.17.1 on my 10.3.9 with a 'make
UISTYLE=mac'.
(Actually, the newest versions of unison include an aqua interface as a
replacement of the gtk interface. )
You then have a Unison.app application and, if you launch it, a menu
proposes you to install it as a binary in /usr/bin (Menu
Unison->Install command-line tool).
Though it is not 100% stable, this beta version works fine with its
simple aqua interface.
(I have not tried yet if it also work on 10.2 but I will be faced to
the problem soon since I also have some 10.2 machines. I started but it
requires to get and compile a recent version of ocaml and I'm working
on it. )
So, here is a suggestion to the maintainer of the unison package which
has already two instances:
why not propose a unison-aqua package since it solves a lot of problems
for int'l mac users or is fink community X11-dependant?
Thanks anyway a lot for your answers. I'll try to apply your suggestion
soon, since I prefer to have all my open source binaries in the fink
tree.
