That is a great deal of help Patrick: it helps me to be realistic about any attempt I might make to port Mnemosysne to Leopard. I believe that the developers of Fink are helpful to people who try and who get as far as you did. Porting Mnemo 1.2.2 to Tiger first; then Leopard / Snow Leopard might be wise ? From reasonable to possibly difficult.

I'll try moving away from the cell phone antennae on the roof of our building. Perhaps I'll try living inside a Faraday cage to recover my energy and coherence: there is a steel yacht for sale close by...;~} Then tackling the project would pay off.

I did not use Fink; at the time not all Fink packages were compatible
with Leopard, and the documentation was sparse.

I tried MacPorts, which gave me some success, but I still had to patch
one of the programs manually.

I'm sorry I'm not more help.

Cheers,

Patrick,

How did you go about compiling Mnemosyne for the Mac:  did you use
Fink, with or without  Fink Commander ?

Did you find the sourceforge communities helpful, or too technical ?

Best regards

I have compiled Mnemosyne from source on the Mac (though that was
about
a year ago), and unfortunately it's not terribly straightforward. At
the time, the qt3 libraries had a bug that caused them to refused to
load on Leopard.  I eventually found a fix, but it was rather time
consuming.

I would offer to help you more but I switched from the Mac.  If you
were
really motivated, you might consider installing Ubuntu/VirtualBox and
using the Linux version through the virtual machine, which should be
much easier to get running.  (though it's quite a bit of work still,
unfortunately)

Cheers,
Patrick

Hi!
I would like to use Mnemogogo. It seems it is not supported under
1.2.1.
Is it worth the hassle to build 1.2.2 from the sources under 10.6 or
is the Mac version expected to ship soon. I'm more a GUI guy and a
little bit helpless regarding the terminal and make build.
Perhaps someone can guide me in the right directions.
;-)

Thanks
Jens
