Works like a charm on PPC with 10.5 (sorry, no Intel available a.t.m.).

Dear all,

I finally succeeded building Mac binaries of LyX 1.5.5 using autoconf and a
static Qt build - which still took a while, but went smoothly.
Thanks to Bennett for holding hands!

Please find them here:
<http://www2.spsc.tugraz.at/people/hofbauer/lyx/LyXMac155.zip>

THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL INSTALLER !!!
(only the app itself, and untested)

The archive contains two zipped applicaton bundles, one is Intel- only, and one a Universal binary. It also contains the output of configure, and the a
modified version of Bennett's script which shows you what I did.

Bennett, please pick the one you prefer, and test if it works on your
machines, esp. PPC and/or Leopard.


The universal binary you provided works for me on Intel-10.5 and PPC-10.4.
So I've packaged it up and put it here:

LyX-1.5.5-Mac-Univer..><http://edisk.fandm.edu/bennett.helm/LyX/LyX-1.5.5-Mac-Universal.dmg >

Konrad and Anders: please test to make sure it works, and then I'll have
Jürgen post it on the official server.

Bennett, one thing I found:

1) The configure-parameter --build should be YOUR machine (i.e.
--build=i686-apple-darwin9.xx.xx) with xx.xx whatever you have.
If you call configure without this parameter it tells you what you have.

2) The configure-parameter --host should be the machine you build for, i.e.
the host the program should run at. So use either
--host=i686-apple-darwin8 or --host=powerpc-apple-darwin8

Always specify --host AND --build, see

OK. I've changed my script. I'm trying various ways to see if I can get 10.5 to use the 10.4 SDK, partly using Anders suggestions in this thread. I'll
let you know if I have any success.

Thanks!

Bennett
