Thank you. Sorry the development has gone a bit slow; I've been quite busy lately, but it should be finished soon. I am working on the installation shell scripts (which are already in the git repo). I will try to keep the package up to date, when possible as well.

Hello everyone,
I am really not practical with all this IT issues (homebrew, fink, etc..).
I have tried my best but I did not succeed in installing Synfig on my macbook. I have tried it on a PC and it seems to be a great software. I would love to use it for a project that is expected to be completed in a couple of months (which means I need to start very soon)... do you have any idea when/wheter the installer will be available so that I know if I can wait for it or start looking for another software?

Thanks a lot and sorry for my IT ignorance!

Cheers!

Lorenzo: thanks for your interest. I actually tried building Synfig months ago and didn't know where to start. I took a look at it recently and then realized I now understood what I was doing wrong. It is understandable that it's confusing at first. I plan on getting the installer done by this weekend, but I can't promise anything. The first version will be simple:
- run some scripts that download, optimize and build the dependencies using homebrew
- create a Mac wrapper around the homebrew package that runs in X11.app
Basically, all the user has to worry about is double-clicking on an icon. However, there are some minor flaws with this approach, you can decide how they affect you:
- You will have to get the extra developer tools that apple does not ship with your computer from developer.apple.com (It's a simple, one click installer, you don't need to worry about any complications but it would be nice if this step weren't necessary)
- You need an Intel Mac with Mac OS X 10.5.8 (Leopard) or higher.
- It won't look or behave quite like your other Mac apps.
These I all plan to eliminate when I have some more time to look into how Homebrew works, so it will feel like a Mac app, run on older Macs, and not require the developer tools. I plan on achieving this by doing a bit of research and trying out different things, so I don;t think that will be ready just yet. If you feel any of these minor problems aren't suitable, you will probably need to wait or figure out something else. I hope this helps!

I tried following your installation instructions and I got an error in the installation when I did this line:

Quote:
/usr/local/bin/brew install synfigstudio


The there's a whole bunch of text but this is where it looks like things go wrong.

I'm almost an illiterate when it comes to this stuff but it looks like it may be missing some external libraries. Is there anything special I have to do before I run the scripts you've provided?

Here's the rest of the message, if it helps:

Hmm... it looks like I missed out a dependency somewhere. Thanks for pointing it out, I have a bunch of things that I forget don't come with Mac's. It looks like you need imagemagick. Give this latest commit a try, by doing the curl step for synfigstudio w/ this latest commit https://gist.github.com/raw/836137/9b2c ... gstudio.rb

secondplanet, when building synfigstudio, synfig's path must be known to render the icons based on the sif files. It seems that none of the synfig libraries path is known for the time synfigsttudio is being built.

Genete,
I'm trying to build and am having the same issue.
Do you know of a way to set the path for Synfig during the build, or shall I wait for secondplanet?
Thanks!

I don't know how to do that in a Mac. In linux you have to add the path of the installed libraries to the searching path so they are found at run time.

secondplanet, I tried again with the new link. It said this when I ran the install:

But it still failed saying:

Thanks Genete for the tip. As it turns out you add stuff to the PATH the same way as on linux! At the command prompt:
Code:
open ~/.bash_profile /Applications/TextEdit.app/


then add a line in TextEdit saying
Code:
source ~/.bashrc


Then, open bashrc
Code:
open ~/.bashrc -a /Applications/TextEdit.app/

and add
Code:
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin # or wherever you installed homebrew


Then restart a new terminal session and try again.
