Yes, I saw that the original spkg-install package was doing some framework thing on Darwin, but unfortunately it didn't work at all, the cmake failed to run (it failed to find the framework). So I just did it the same way as on linux, and that configures, but since it doesn't use the framework, it fails later. So if you know how to fix the framework thing, then it should work. > > I will try and update the work I did for the framework build for the > latest sage release.

BTW, this uses X11, right or does it also work with Carbon/Cocoa? I don't exactly now.
