Hi Michael, While not packaged/waiting: not sure but IF MySQL is supported in Ubuntu builds, you could try to run a virtual machine (Virtualbox?) with a minimal Ubuntu and install QGIS in that? Not sure how good Docker is working on Mac, but Tim Sutton also created a Docker image which will run QGIS in a Docker container: https://github.com/kartoza/docker-qgis-desktop but output it to your X-server (uh... does Mac still us X???)? Or if all that fails: get an old laptop and install Ubuntu on it :-) Regards, Richard Duivenvoorde _______________________________________________ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org List info: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
