This evening I checked in a bunch of changes (mostly to Jamfiles) that allow the RDKit to be built under Mac OS X (at least under version 10.5.4). All the unit tests pass except for Numeric/EigenSolvers; I'm looking into that one.
I am a very, very long way from being a Mac OS X expert, but things look pretty good and I didn't have to hack around in order to make things compile, so I think this is probably ok. Some work is going to have to be done on installation instructions because I didn't really install much of anything on this Mac other than boost 1.36.0. The rest came pre-configured from IT. The one thing that seems a big dodgy is the location of the numpy include files (needed for Jamroot) --/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/Extras/lib/python/numpy/core/include -- but maybe that's standard? I would be very, very happy to have input from people more familiar with the platform, particularly if anyone could even sketch out some install instructions that would make sense to a Mac user. Best Regards, -greg
