When I was playing with svn a while ago, it wasn't very stable, so I have been using 0.8.2. I have made a Mac Intel package (that doesn't work without fink installed) and finally got mingw to build a Windows installer, so I've been having some success. However, it seems that the windows version has problems downloading the .png file that my webserver sends it (the png get's corrupted somehow). I'm not sure what the problem could be since the Mac version works.
How does one make a Mac Intel application that doesn't depend on Fink? I have tried using cmake_build.sh (for svn) because of your suggestion, but am having problems getting it to build. It complains about a lot of unknown symbols. I think I finally got it to use some frameworks instead of Fink, so that may not be an issue anymore. Incidentally, someone told me that the cmake build system wasn't kept up to date, and that I should use autotools instead. Is that true? It might explain the linking problem. Perhaps I should try it for 0.8.2 and see if it works there. Thanks for your help. If you do create a Mac Intel binary I would be interested, but you don't need to spend a lot of time on it, since I think I can get it to work with enough patience. -Ivan P.S. I noticed that the patch I sent <http://gna.org/patch/?1114> no longer compiles against svn since Downloader::Get() is now private. Oops.
