- LyX/Mac is built from the LyX source, the GPL-licensed Trolltech
- Qt/Mac library, and a custom application bundle. Qt-3.2.3 and
- later versions align the button labels in the Math Panel better
- under MacOS-10.3, but present other problems. Qt-3.1.2 as patched
- here is fully functional.

-
- 1. Download the GPL-licensed Qt/Mac library source code from
- <ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/contrib/qt-mac-free-3.1.2.sit>, untar in
- a convenient directory, cd to the top of the Qt source hierarcy,

+1. Download the GPL-licensed Qt/Mac Free Edition library source code
+from <http://www.trolltech.com/download/qt/mac.html>, untar in a
+convenient directory, cd to the top of the Qt source hierarcy, and:
export QTDIR=`pwd`
- patch -p0 < LYX-SOURCE-DIRECTORY/development/MacOSX/qt.patch
- sudo gcc_select 3.3
- ./configure -static [for Panther, use "./configure -static -lresolv"]
+ sudo gcc_select 3.3
+ ./configure -static -no-exceptions [for Panther, use "./configure -static -no-exceptions -lresolv"]
make
+ rm lib/libqt.la
+
+2. Download the LyX/Mac skeleton from
+<ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/stable/lyx-mac-1.3.5-skeleton.tar.gz> and
+unpack it in /Applications. Change the references to "1.4.0" in
+/Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Info.plist to reflect the current
+version number.
- 2. Using the same terminal session, cd to the top of the LyX
- source hierarchy, and:
+3. Using the same terminal session you used to build the Qt library,
+cd to the top of the LyX source hierarchy, and:
export LDFLAGS="-framework Carbon -framework OpenGL -framework AGL -framework QuickTime -lz"
- ./configure --with-frontend=qt --without-x --datadir=/Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources --bindir=/Applications/LyX.app/Contents/MacOS --mandir=/Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/man

make
- cp -R development/MacOSX/LyX.app /Applications
make install
rm /Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/LyX/images/lyx.xpm
+[Note that removing lyx.xpm -- the point of the last line above -- is
+necessary to use the Mac OS X native icon files included in the
+LyX/Mac skeleton.]
- For information on configuring LyX/Mac, please see the howto at
- <http://www.18james.com/lyx_on_aqua.html>. The binary installation
- of LyX/Mac installs LaTeX fonts and packages, and provides
- additional functionality including inverse DVI search with some
- DVI-previewers.
