Hello,
I am trying to use cmake on MacOS (10.6). I didn't on purpose read the Mac
INSTALL/README in order to judge how easy it is to compile LyX under MacOS. So
far, I am pleased. big kudoes to Peter/Kornel/Stefan/Bennett!
Here is what I did:
1) install the latest Xcode 3.something, not so much for Xcode but because it
brings in gcc and MacOS development libraries.
2) install Qt-4.7 from Nokia
3) install cmake from cmake web site
4) install MacPorts
5) update MacPorts: sudo port -v selfupdate
6) install gmake:sudo port -v selfupdate
7) mkdir devel/lyx
8) svn co svn svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk
9) mkdir trunk/build
10) cd trunk/build
11) cmake ../development/cmake/
12) make
13) ./bin/LyX2.0 -sysdir ../lib
And it works!!!! I am able to load all help documents. By the way what is the
font problem I should be having with Qt-4.7? The rendering seems quite good on
the UserGuide, AFAICS.
Now I am going to install Latex (any recommendation here?)
I am also going to read the INSTALL/README ion order to know what I should
tweak in CMake for proper spellchecking/etc. One thing maybe worth of reporting
is this warning from cmake:
-- Configuring done
CMake Warning at src/CMakeLists.txt:95 (add_executable):
Cannot generate a safe linker search path for target LyX2.0 because files
in some directories may conflict with libraries in implicit directories:

/opt/local/lib
Some of these libraries may not be found correctly.
