Re: [Avogadro-devel] Make Package for Avogadro
Ah, I think I see the cmake option now. ENABLE_AVO_PACKAGE. I will try this when I get back to my Mac.

Re: [Avogadro-devel] Make Package for Avogadro
Hi Geoff, Yeah, can I see that script? I might consider buying dmg canvas if I think I'll use it in the future. For now, I might just try zipping the Avogadro.app file. I just want to make sure that it has all of the OpenBabel .dylib files in it (and the data files and anything else). "Make package" was pretty close to working except it didn't include those dependencies. As for the Linux package, I guess I can just require Linux users to compile it. I doubt many of the students are Linux users anyways, and if they are, they hopefully know how to use the terminal at least. Thanks Marcus and Geoff! I'll try those things out.

On Mac, with v1 I simply run “make install” and then have a script that copies to a DMG. I’m happy to share the DMG template, although it uses a non-free tool called “DMG Canvas” (http://www.araelium.com/dmgcanvas) to install the pictures, etc. That’s the only reason I haven’t shared - it doesn’t seem like a good idea to force people to use that tool. I think plenty of people using a Mac are happy to have a relocatable app in a ZIP archive too. For that, you simply zip up /Applications/Avogadro.app once it’s finished with “make install” -Geoff -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ Avogadro-devel mailing list Avogadro-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/avogadro-devel

We never invested any time in getting Linux packaging to work, so I would be surprised if it worked.

In Avogadro 2 I got this working within the build system, and if you turn the flags on it will ensure obabel et al are packaged.
