I'd like to provide universal binaries for Mac, but (alas) I don't know how to do that. Do you have suggestions on how I might compile Fossil to on Mac to make it usable by the most Mac users? We are getting ready to do a new release. Cool that you are using Fossil in your class. CPS313 is it? -- D.

Something like: $ ./configure --disable-dependency-tracking \ CFLAGS='-arch x86_64 -arch i386' The --disable-dependency-tracking bit is necessary because you don't want *.o from one architecture to fool make(1) into believing it doesn't have to rebuild the *.o for the other arch. This doubles build time, of course. You can add -arch ppc and -arch ppc64 if you want *truly* universal binaries. ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users

I'd argue that i386 (and maybe ppc) is plenty. My understanding is that most _64 processors actually perform pretty well with 32-bit code. But the other (and larger) problem I had was with the library update. The provided binary wanted libiconv version 8, when I only had 7. Maybe you have to compile on a Snow Leopard system? ../Dave ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
[fossil-users] Problem with Mac OS X downloads
I would think that the downloads should be set up to work for as many people as possible. The Mac download says: Mac 10.5 x86 but it does not run on fully up-to-date Snow Leopard (10.6.8) as it uses a shared library later than that available. And all the older versions are x86_64 so don't run on one of my machines. For example: $ unzip fossil-macosx-x86-20120317175325.zip Archive: fossil-macosx-x86-20120317175325.zip inflating: fossil $ file fossil fossil: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64 $ ./fossil -bash: ./fossil: Bad CPU type in executable $ unzip fossil-macosx-x86-20130618210923.zip Archive: fossil-macosx-x86-20130618210923.zip inflating: fossil $ file fossil fossil: Mach-O executable i386 $ ./fossil dyld: Library not loaded: /opt/local/lib/libiconv.2.dylib Referenced from: /Users/dmason/Downloads/./fossil Reason: Incompatible library version: fossil requires version 8.0.0 or later, but libiconv.2.dylib provides version 7.0.0 Trace/BPT trap I can and have built from the tar file and will provide it for my class, but it would seem desirable for the downloadable file to be the most widely executable possible. ../Dave ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
