Hello everyone! The PySide buildscripts[1], a set of scripts to build a fresh PySide sandbox from Git for testing and developing on the bleeding edge, has gained support for Mac OS X. You can now try the latest and greatest PySide on OS X as well, all you need is to install the Xcode tools[2] from Apple and the Qt SDK for Mac OS X[3]. Other build dependencies include "cmake" and "libxml2". You can get those via any of the existing port tools (MacPorts, Fink, etc..), but the recommended way is to use "homebrew"[4] - this is supported by the "dependencies.osx.sh" script for installing the dependencies on Mac OS X.
See the README file for detailed instructions on how to build PySide using the buildscripts. The installation will be placed in ~/pkg/pyside-sandbox/ - no other files will be installed system-wide. In order to use PySide from the sandbox, you have to source the file "environment.sh" from the buildscripts in your current shell to set up the required environment variables. You can add this to your ~/.profile if you always want to use the sandbox version of PySide. Please let me know if you experience any issues. Enjoy!
