Trying to Build Mac Version

[CarinaPDX]

Best I can tell the problem with the two plug-in dylibs is that they are not copied into the app bundle in ~/tmp before the fixup_bundle command is run. After the install fails there is no Plugins folder in the app bundle, and so no dylibs inside. This may be the only remaining problem.

Does anyone know where this should be done in cmake?

Greg,

you have 2 libz.dylib in your system, one originated from Apple in /usr/lib/ and one from MacPorts in /opt/local/lib/
The compiler does not knows which one to use.
Since Snow Leopard universal libs are for 32bit (Carbon) and for 64bit (Cocoa).
Before Snow Leopard universal libs are for PPC and Intel.
Try to use 64bit because Carbon is outdated.
I can't give further help because I use the Xcode gui and not the command line tools. After Mountain Lion is out you should use an Apple developer ID otherwise Gatekeeper warns about unsecure software installations.

Gerhard,

I am aware of the conflict between the two libz.dylib copies, although it is not clear that any problem would result as both are 32/64; the Apple version is 1.2.3 and the MacPorts version is 1.2.7. If you know of a way to instruct cmake to prefer one or the other I would appreciate knowing it.

I am also aware of Apple's bad decision to use the word "universal" to mean two different things (32/64 and PPC/Intel) depending on the version of OS X. It is continued in MacPorts, where the "universal" variant means different things depending on the OS X version being used. Very annoying.

As stated above, my purpose is to try to build binaries that can be used by pre-Snow Leopard systems for computers that can't use 64-bit Intel binaries - there are a lot of them out there. Personally, I am using Snow Leopard and will happily use the dmg on the web site for my own computer, and appreciate those who are working on the 64-bit code. Just as others would appreciate it if I can get the 32-bit versions working for older systems...

I have found the cause of the 2 install errors: as of version 2.8.3 cmake no longer defaults to copying plug-in dylibs into the bundle; it now must be done explicitly. This explains why it worked before but not now. Now if I only knew how to copy them in cmake...
