Hi all!

This weekend I tried to compile LyX 1.4.0cvs on my new Powerbook (10.3.5 with current Security fixes, XCode and Apple X11) so I could take a look at all those "Math-font-errors" everyone is talking about ;-)
Here's a report about my troubles:


I followed the instructions from README.MacOSX to the letter:

- installed QtLib 3.1.2 with  lyx patch and flags -static
- changed to lyx-devel/
- set LDFLAGS
- ./configure ....
- make

Of course I got the infamous " 'asm' - impossible reload of operand" errors. (1)

Then I found the hint about configuring "--enable-optimization=Os".
This produced the configure warnings "ostream: present but cannot be compiled" with the suggestion to report this to the AutoConf team. (1)
As Bennet Helm reported, ./configure then also misses the Qt library.


When I analyzed the config.log a stumbled over a complaint about a missing _file_ 'Os'.
I now tried ./configure with "--enable-optimization=-Os" (2) and voila! It's compiling.
And it starts, yippie!


Could someone update the README.MaxOSX file in the CVS, please?

Cheers
Andreas Vox



(1) All error messages quoted from memory. Should be enough to recognize them if you get them yourselves.
(2) Note the extra minus char before the 'Os'
