I've submitted some patches to D-Bus to allow it to auto-launch on Mac OS X. This should let me remove some completely awful and distribution-specific code from kdelibs.
It's got a few quirks to work out, but on 10.5, it's rockin'! Even scarier, I wrote C code. I think it might even be halfway decent C code. Time to look out, Armageddon is clearly happening any day now. 🙂
Oh, and as an aside, this is the first time I've actually had to break down and finally learn how to use Git, since that's what dbus uses, and it's friggin' amazing. Lightning fast, and well-suited to sending patches upstream.

Ah, C code! Keep it up 🙂
And Git is brilliant for tracking changes spontaneously in directories you don’t usually have under version control. All you need is:
git init
git add .
git commit -a -m “import”
And you can track all your changes 🙂 And once you don’t need it anymore:
rm -rf .git
I love it!
Could it be that the howto documentation is missing some infos ?
I try to build e.g. qt-copy as you explained at http://techbase.kde.org/index.php?title=Projects/KDE_on_Mac_OS_X/Tips_On_Building, but I always get errors while building.
I am using your latest snapshot + Xcode 3 on a Intel Macbook with Leopard.
Could it be that you have different configure commandline options ?
Cheers,
Daniel
Hm, it shouldn’t be different, I use that configure-qt.sh script specifically so I use the same options every time…
What errors do you get?

Weird, I’ve never seen this before.
Maybe you’re missing the SDK root or something? Do you have /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk ?
yes I have.
I have /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk/, /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5u.sdk/ and even /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.3.9.sdk/
Maybe I should reinstall XCode 3.0 ?
Cheers,
Daniel
I’m out of ideas, I can’t replicate your error. Maybe try opening a bug or checking in on the kde-devel list or irc channel to see if anyone has any ideas…
Hi,
I just found similar issues, which were caused by the older apple gcc 3.3.
I am not sure if its a similar issue now.
I have:
# which gcc && gcc –version
/usr/bin/gcc
i686-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1 (GCC) 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465)
Copyright (C) 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
Cheers,
Daniel
It worked!
Just to recap everything:
I reinstalled XCode 3.0 – No Change
I reinstalled CMake from CVS – No Change
After that I just tried to change the SDK Set from 10.4u to 10.5 and it worked as it should.
I thought the XCode 3.0 includes all needed includes/libs with 10.4u, but I can’t build it with this on my leopard system. Switching to SDK 10.5 does the job.

Thats the only difference and now I can build qt-copy.
Hope this helps other people who step into the issue.
cheers,
Daniel
Just another small thing:
decibel is under trunk too. I had to change the PACKAGES list in make-packages.sh (As you can see in the following diff)
