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 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: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2011-06-26 05:17 Message: 6YMGp7 <a href="http://shvtfrkkdich.com/">shvtfrkkdich</a>, [url=http://mpiifkbqkijf.com/]mpiifkbqkijf[/url], [link=http://elsnhqxemzvd.com/]elsnhqxemzvd[/link], http://ootlccbodlzu.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Date: 2009-03-29 02:33 Message: So, contact the people who did this xcode project and get them to build it on a PPC system. Or just build it for PPC yourself. Or fix whatever the issue is and send them a patch. Posting a message here doesn't help in the slightest. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2009-03-28 19:03 Message: The GTK+ framework is only for intel macs it appears, when you start a new project in xcode and select GTK+ application the description textbox says "This project builds a GTK+-based application written in C (x86 only)." This is a bummer. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Date: 2009-03-24 13:23 Message: The current status is and always will be in this bug and on the wiki page: http://synfig.org/Building_On_Mac_OS_X If you would like to step up and maintain a package for us, please do so! Until then, the fink packages are the best automated option. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2009-03-24 13:00 Message: What is the status of OS X port? I would like to install Synfig Studio to our school's iMacs, but building from source isn't an option because of the complicate updating process. I'm considering Fink packages... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Date: 2008-09-28 06:46 Message: Good news, there is now an Xcode framework for MacOS: http://gtk-osx.org/ http://people.imendio.com/richard/archives/2008/09/gtk_os_x_framew.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ampersand Laboratories Team (andlabs) Date: 2008-08-05 18:21 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1218098 Originator: NO Intaglio also needs to be aware of this. I'm believing an update to Intaglio's libraries ports can fix my problems. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Date: 2008-08-05 15:24 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=35028 Originator: YES decrease789: Please send the changes to gtkmm to upstream: http://gtkmm.org/bugs.shtml#NewBugs ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: jnicolson (decrease789) Date: 2008-08-05 11:36 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1297921 Originator: NO I can compile on ppc if I have the dependencies atk and gtkmm. I needed to modify gtkmm though line 158 of notebook.cc needs to be commented and line 684 of scrolledwindow.cc. Also multiple occurrences of g_assert and g_assert_not_reached also needed commenting. Otherwise fine. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ampersand Laboratories Team (andlabs) Date: 2008-07-30 20:32 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1218098 Originator: NO I got it to build, but it won't run - on the "Init MetaData" stage, it crashes. Still investigating. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2008-07-30 20:30 Message: Logged In: NO When will the mac version be fixed? I had hoped to use this wonderful package because of it's features. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ampersand Laboratories Team (andlabs) Date: 2008-07-16 22:03 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1218098 Originator: NO Building this GTK+ on tiger failed for me. I got Leopard, so I'll try there. If that doesn't work, I might try to build a set of GTK wrapper functions around Carbon or Cocoa (more likely the latter). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2008-07-16 16:35 Message: Logged In: NO I have toad genitalia and my password is "12345". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ampersand Laboratories Team (andlabs) Date: 2008-03-29 01:55 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1218098 Originator: NO With GTK+OSX complete and this App Builder, I can go for a spin now. Wish me luck! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Date: 2008-03-28 08:29 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=35028 Originator: YES Some more info about creating Mac .app bundles: http://people.imendio.com/richard/archives/2008/03/gtk_application.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Date: 2008-03-26 05:53 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=35028 Originator: YES Update: we have fink packages in fink now. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: dooglus (dooglus) Date: 2007-09-10 20:25 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1546005 Originator: NO This wiki page documents an attempt at building using the native port of GTK+: http://wiki.synfig.com/Building_On_Mac_OS_X ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ampersand Laboratories Team (andlabs) Date: 2007-08-27 02:48 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1218098 Originator: NO GTKmm is on Fink, so there might be a dependency. Right now, I'm down to 15GB of hard disk space, when I get an external drive I'll get more dedicated with the building of this product. As for Intaglio, it'd be nice if they actually said it was stable on their site. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2007-08-27 02:37 Message: Logged In: NO I'm sorry, but I talked to Micke Hallendal of Imendio, and he told me their GTK+ port had been stale for quite a while and that they probably wouldn't continue work on it. (He's on #penguins @ irc.freenode.net from time to time.) Anyways, I'm still working on the OS X build, but ran into quite a problem with Pango, which I'm still trying to figure out. I'm sorry that I haven't given any progress reports on #synfig for a long time, but I figured I'd rather actually work on it than talk about working on it (which I have a rather nasty tendency to do once I join #synfig). But if anyone would care to join me in figuring out the Pango mystery and in general getting a Synfig build for OS X released, you're very welcome to contact me on madsen{at}lillesvin{dot}net. I'm not using the XCode-stuff that Darco put in there, though, I'm working my way through creating the .app manually (which is kinda cumbersome), but it hopefully results in a usable .app at some point instead of a .pkg that scatters files all over the place. If anyone would prefer to entirely take over the build, you're also very welcome and of course I'll try to be of assistance if necessary, because I might not have very much time for projects like this in the near future, but I'll try.

I'm currently examining the code now. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Paul Wise (pabs3) Date: 2007-05-28 02:38 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 01:51 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: 2007-05-27 23:35 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: 2007-05-25 20:16 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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
