Hi,
I am about to try compiling and using master on macOS. I just has a
look at INSTALL.MacOSX. It mentions Qt version 4. That seems a bit
outdated. But I guess that I am looking at the latest guide to
compile on macOS, right?
Yes, it’s outdated. It should work with Qt4 - but Qt4 cannot be used
on recent macOS.
Basically I’m using the script LyX-Mac-binary-release.sh in
development folder. That’s much easier than other options, IMO.
First step is to install Xcode and the automake and/or cmake
utilities. This can be done with macports or homebrew. I’m using
macports.
Second step is to get Qt5 - as source or binary distribution. I’m
using the source tarball and build Qt5 myself.
Optional components are the spell checker and libmagic frameworks.
Finally I start development/LyX-Mac-binary-release.sh with
--enable-cxx11
--with-qt-dir=/path/to/qt5
Stephan
Thanks. Finally came around trying it on macOS. I take it one has to
run the last command with sh, right? So, from the lyx directory (in
the lyxgit directory) I execute
sh development/LyX-Mac-binary-release.sh --enable-cxx11
--with-qt-dir=/Users/<username>/Qt/5.9.9
(where I replace <username> by my macOS user name. Unfortunately, I
get the following:

By the way, if finally successful, where will this put the LyX.app?

I’ve made a protocol of the steps I took to build the package on a new
system. See the attached log. Probably the crucial thing is the
mklyx-2.3.4.3.sh script.
I’m used to configure and build LyX out of source. I have a working
directory with one or more versions of LyX source code and a directory
lyx-build for the results. For Qt I have a source directory and an
install target in parallel, the build directory is in lyx-build.
$ ls /Users/Shared/LyX
lyx-2.3.4.3 (source)
lyx-2.3.5.2 (source)
lyx-build (directory)
qt-5.9.9-frameworks-cocoa-x86_64 (QTDIR for 5.9.9)
qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.9.9 (source)
The lyx-build contains the build directory, the installed package
(LyX.app) and the resulting disk image.
$ ls /Users/Shared/LyX/
LyX-2.3.4.3+qt5-x86_64-cocoa.dmg (disk image)
LyX-2.3.4.3.app (working app)
LyX-2.3.4.3.build (binaries)
LyX-2.3.5.2+qt5-x86_64-cocoa.dmg (disk image)
LyX-2.3.5.2.app (working app)
LyX-2.3.5.2.build (binaries)
qt-5.9.9-build-x86_64 (binaries)
The /bin/sh on a Mac is in fact a bash, IMO.
Stephan
I am using git to download the lyx source and qt installer. But the
steps should be the same except for the unpacking and setting my own
directories, right?
Also what does
osascript -e 'tell application "Finder" to display notification "LyX is
great stuff"'
do? It looks strange.
Daniel
Okay, I guess it can't be the same because there is a specific LyX
version mentioned (2.3.4.3). What would I use if I want to compile from
git (master)?
