Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Binary Installation Group: Latest release (0.61.05) Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 9 Private: No Submitted By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: no MacOS X binary available, no MacOS maintainer Initial Comment: We have no binary available for MacOS X and no-one to maintain a MacOS X port. This is currently a blocker for the next release. There are scripts in the source code to build MacOS packages, but we have no-one to build, test, port and provide packages. If you would like to take on the task of providing MacOS packages, please take the following into consideration. Bugs in the previous, broken packages are available here, they should be avoided in any new packages: http://sf.net/tracker/?func=browse&group_id=144022&atid=757416&summary_keyword=mac&set=custom&_status=100&_assigned_to=0 GTK+ is being ported to MacOS X native, any packages should probably use that instead of MacOS X X11: http://developer.imendio.com/projects/gtk-macosx Packages would preferably be provided as a single app-bundle to be placed in any directory on the system and Just Work (TM). Additionally, it would be nice to have fink packages too :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Date: 2007-05-28 10:38 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=35028 Originator: YES Excellent. I've no idea about your gtk question, I can't even find anything on Google about gtk_cursor_by_name, I'd suggest the source or koders.com: http://www.koders.com/default.aspx?s=gtk_cursor_by_name&btn=Search&la=*&li=* synfigstudio uses GTKmm BTW. Also, we don't really have any people who know GTK+/GTKmm well involved in synfig. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ampersand Laboratories Team (andlabs) Date: 2007-05-28 09:51 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1218098 Originator: NO See you on the IRC soon PS - where can I learn about some of the more exclusive features of GTK+? For example, the documentation doesn't discuss the gtk_cursor_by_name function which takes a name like "arrow" instead of GTK_ARROW. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Date: 2007-05-28 07:35 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=35028 Originator: YES andlabs, awesome! Fisrt, come join us on IRC and on the devel and user mailing lists (send an intro to both please). Second, check out the source from SVN, third, look at the osx script and update the build instructions page for MacOS X: http://wiki.synfig.com/Build_instructions After that, improve the OS X build by sending in patches that we can apply to SVN. Help out the GTK on native OS X project by sending patches. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ampersand Laboratories Team (andlabs) Date: 2007-05-26 04:16 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1218098 Originator: NO I'll do it! I've been interested in Synfig for a while. I hope I can do it with just your downloads! If not, what else do I need? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=757416&aid=1686495&group_id=144022 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
