Hi Eric,

The closest I've heard of someone building Barry on a Mac is someone building
it on FreeBSD. :-)  Which isn't that close, but you get my drift.

But in theory, this is possible, because all the important pieces are there.

Take a look at the master list of dependencies at:

        http://www.netdirect.ca/software/packages/barry/dependencies.php

You won't need the ones marked for the GUI, nor opensync, nor FUSE.

If you're willing to make some small edits to the code for things like
usb.h and libusb.h, I'm willing to help you through the process of
compiling.  Just post the errors you get stuck in to the mailing list.

- Chris
