 PREREQUISITES
 
 
 PREREQUISITES
 

-1. Qt/Mac Free Edition, version 4. This library is GPL-licensed
-and can be downloaded from
-<http://www.trolltech.com/download/qt/mac.html>. You will need to 
-compile it yourself (as described below).
-
-2. automake, version 1.5 or higher (check with automake --version). 
-Probably the easiest way to get this is to use DarwinPorts (from
-http://darwinports.opendarwin.org/getdp/) and install automake
-using
-    sudo port install automake
-
-3.  gettext version >= 0.12 (check with gettext --version)
-If the installed version is insufficient the 
-easiest way to obtain a later version is to get DarwinPorts 
-(from http://darwinports.opendarwin.org/getdp/) and install gettext 
-using
+Note: Only Qt/Mac is needed for building official LyX releases, and
+so steps 2 and 3 can be skipped in these cases. Those wanting to
+build developmental versions must have automake and gettext as
+well.
+
+1. Qt/Mac Opensource Edition, version 4.
+This library is GPL-licensed and can be downloaded from
+<http://trolltech.com/developer/downloads/qt/mac/>. To compile it,
+create a directory where you want to install QT4. In the following, 
+the full path to this directory is called /path/to/QT4
+Decompress Qt/Mac in a convenient directory, cd to the top of the
+Qt source hierarcy, and enter:
+
+     ./configure -static -no-exceptions -nomake examples -nomake tools -nomake demos -prefix /path/to/QT4
+     make
+     make install
+     rm /path/to/QT4/lib/*.la
+
+       with Qt4.6.2 and snow leopard it becomes:
+
+     CC=gcc-4.0 OBJC=gcc-4.0 CXX=g++-4.0\
+       ./configure -opensource -silent -static -release -universal -fast\
+       -sdk /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk\
+       -no-framework -no-exceptions -no-webkit -no-qt3support -no-javascript-jit -no-dbus\
+       -nomake examples -nomake demos -nomake docs\
+       -nomake tools\
+       -prefix /path/to/QT4
+     make
+     make install
+
+2. [Needed only for developmental builds:] automake, version 1.10
+or higher (check with automake --version). Probably the easiest
+way to get this is to use MacPorts (from http://www.macports.org/)
+and install automake using
+
+     sudo port install automake
+
+3. [Needed only for developmental builds:] gettext version >= 0.12
+(check with gettext --version). If the installed version is
+insufficient the easiest way to obtain a later version is to use
+MacPorts (from http://www.macports.org/) and install gettext
+using:
+

      sudo port install gettext
 
      sudo port install gettext
 

+4. [Useful to simplify detection of Qt:] pkg-config >= 0.9.0. Again,
+the simplest way is through MacPorts:
+
+     sudo port install pkgconfig
+
+
+5. To build with included spell checker (ASpell):
+The aspell library is GPL-licensed and can be downloaded from
+ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/aspell or one of the mirrors.
+At the time of writing aspell-0.60.tar.gz is the current version.
+Unpack the tarball in the same directory where you placed the
+svn checkout or LyX tarball.

 
 BUILD INSTRUCTIONS
 
 
 BUILD INSTRUCTIONS
 

-Note that building LyX/Mac requires gcc version 4.0 or higher. (You
-can check your version  by entering "gcc -v" in the Terminal; you
-can change your gcc version to version 4.0, for example, by entering
-"sudo gcc_select 4.0".)
+In what follows, /path/to/LyX.app is the location where you want LyX
+to create the LyX binary. You should substitute something appropriate,
+like: ~/Desktop/LyX.app. Also, substitute the appropriate path to
+where you installed Qt for /path/to/QT4 (as above).

 
 

-1. Create a directory where you want to install QT4. In the following, 
-the full path to this directory is called /path/to/QT4
-Decompress Qt/Mac in a convenient directory, cd to the top of the
-Qt source hierarcy, and:
+(a) Official Releases
+
+If you did not install pkg-config, first set the LDFLAGS variable:
+
+     export LDFLAGS="-framework Carbon -framework OpenGL -framework AGL -framework QuickTime -framework Cocoa"

 
 

-     ./configure -static -no-exceptions -nomake examples -nomake tools -prefix /path/to/QT4
+Then, cd to the top of the LyX source hierarchy, and enter:
+
+     ./configure --prefix=/path/to/LyX.app --with-version-suffix=-2.0 --with-qt4-dir=/path/to/QT4 --with-included-gettext --enable-optimization=-O2

      make
      make

-     make install
-     cd /path/to/QT4/lib
-     rm *.la
-     
-If you don't prescribe -nomake examples -nomake tools in the
-configuration you need to make sure you have some 20+ GB of free hard
-disk space. Else the installation is about 1GB.
+     make install-strip
+
+(Note that the --with-version-suffix=-2.0 option will result in LyX's
+user's directory being located at ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-2.0)
+
+
+(b) Developmental Versions (svn checkouts)
+
+Building LyX from developmental sources requires a few more steps.
+Instead of the instructions above, do the following:

 
 

+If you did not install pkg-config, first set the LDFLAGS variable:

 
 

-2. The LyX/Mac application bundle skeleton (LyX.app) can be found in 
-the LyX source hierarchy at development/MacOSX. Copy this bundle to a
-directory. In the following, the full path to this directory is called
-/path/to/LyX.app. (The default settings assume that this path is
-/Applications/LyX.app.)
+     export LDFLAGS="-framework Carbon -framework OpenGL -framework AGL -framework QuickTime -framework Cocoa"

 
 

-3. cd to the top of the LyX source hierarchy, and:
+Then, cd to the top of the LyX source hierarchy, and enter:

 
 

-     export LDFLAGS="-framework Carbon -framework OpenGL -framework AGL -framework QuickTime -lz"

      ./autogen.sh
      ./autogen.sh

-     ./configure --prefix=/path/to/LyX.app --disable-concept-checks --with-version-suffix=-1.5 --with-qt4-dir=/path/to/QT4 --enable-optimization=-Os --without-x --with-included-gettext --with-frontend=qt4 --disable-stdlib-debug
+     ./configure --prefix=/path/to/LyX.app --with-version-suffix=-2.0 --with-qt4-dir=/path/to/QT4 --with-included-gettext --enable-optimization=-O2  --disable-stdlib-debug

      make
      make install-strip
 
      make
      make install-strip
 

-(Note that the --with-version-suffix=-1.5 option will result in LyX's
-user's directory being located at ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-1.5.)
+Note that by default svn versions use some extra debugging code that
+somewhat slows LyX down. If it is a real problem, you can pass the
+option --enable-build-type=release to configure.
