Mac OS X MacPorts Compilation

[jonesc@…]

Hi,

I have been experimenting recently with making an OS X MacPorts? Portfile for kdesvn, to build it against the KDE4 libraries currently in MacPorts?.

I have it working fine, but had to make a few tweaks to get it to work, which I want to feedback here in case they can be added to the main release.

1. MacPorts? uses a custom installation location for the final Application /Applications/MacPorts/KDE4. To get this to work I had to patch src/CMakeLists.txt to change

INSTALL(TARGETS kdesvn kdesvnaskpass kdesvnpart

RUNTIME DESTINATION ${BIN_INSTALL_DIR}

LIBRARY DESTINATION ${PLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR})

to

INSTALL(TARGETS kdesvn kdesvnaskpass kdesvnpart

${INSTALL_TARGETS_DEFAULT_ARGS}

LIBRARY DESTINATION ${PLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR})

With this it worked fine. I am not sure what these means, but the MacPorts? experts (which I am not one of, not am I a cmake expert) asked me to feed this back upstream..

2. To get the application icon properly installed, the line

KDE4_ADD_APP_ICON(kdesvnsrc "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/hi*-app-kdesvn.png")

needs adding before the line

KDE4_ADD_EXECUTABLE(kdesvn ${kdesvnsrc})

in the same CMakeLists.txt file.

With these I have kdesvn working very nicely on OS X via MacPorts? (not yet commited but hopefully soon).

cheers Chris

sounds good. I'll check the changes ASAP and put them into the repository.

Hi,

Great thanks. In case you are interested I've submitted a ticket to MacPorts? to include the Portfile for this.
