WHAT IS THIS
|
|
------------
|
|
This document describes how to build Tux Paint for macOS 10.12 Sierra and later.
|
|
|
|
Tux Paint 0.9.22 and earlier required building Tux Paint from the XCode IDE.
|
|
Starting with 0.9.23, however, Tux Paint for macOS is built as though it were a
|
|
Linux application.
|
|
|
|
|
|
PREREQUISITES
|
|
-------------
|
|
Although Tux Paint is built without the XCode IDE, XCode itself is still required
|
|
to build Tux Paint. Download it from the App Store, and launch it once to
|
|
accept its license agreements. Also install XCode command line tools using the
|
|
command:
|
|
|
|
xcode-select --install
|
|
|
|
Building Tux Paint also requires various packages. We install them from
|
|
MacPorts where possible, source code otherwise. Install MacPorts to the
|
|
default /opt/local path according to the instructions found on their website:
|
|
|
|
https://www.macports.org/
|
|
|
|
As of this writing, the following packages need to be installed:
|
|
|
|
ImageMagick
|
|
cairo
|
|
fribidi
|
|
lbzip2
|
|
libimagequant*
|
|
libpaper
|
|
libpng
|
|
librsvg
|
|
libsdl
|
|
libsdl_image
|
|
libsdl_mixer
|
|
libsdl_pango
|
|
libsdl_ttf
|
|
pkgconfig
|
|
zlib
|
|
|
|
* - Not available from MacPorts as of this writing, see below
|
|
|
|
... but you should install any package that is required by the latest version of
|
|
Tux Paint.
|
|
|
|
libimagequant
|
|
-------------
|
|
libimagequant is not available from MacPorts as of this writing. It can be
|
|
installed from the source code as follows. It should be installed to
|
|
/opt/local (same as MacPorts) for the library to be included in TuxPaint.dmg.
|
|
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/ImageOptim/libimagequant.git
|
|
$ cd libimagequant
|
|
$ ./configure --prefix=/opt/local
|
|
$ make
|
|
$ sudo make install
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** WARNING ***
|
|
---------------
|
|
Having any UNIX-like toolset installed on your Mac besides MacPorts and
|
|
XCode, such as Fink or Brew, will prevent your app bundle from being
|
|
portable. Be sure Fink and Brew are not accessible from your build
|
|
environment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
HOW TO BUILD
|
|
------------
|
|
Simply, run:
|
|
|
|
% make
|
|
% make install
|
|
|
|
... to create the TuxPaint.app application bundle that can be run in-place or
|
|
copied to /Applications. It also creates TuxPaint.dmg for distribution.
|
|
|
|
|
|
KNOWN ISSUES
|
|
------------
|
|
- A macOS binary built on a specific version of macOS only runs on that version
|
|
of macOS or later. To ensure Tux Paint can run on the oldest version of
|
|
macOS possible, build it on the oldest version of macOS available. As of
|
|
this writing we know Tux Paint cannot be built to run on macOS 10.7 or
|
|
earlier.
