XaoS for Mac OS X (Cocoa) Build Instructions By J.B. Langston III Here are instructions for getting the XaoS Xcode project to build successfully assuming you have downloaded a released source tarball or gotten the source from CVS: A) Build dependencies 1) Download the latest libpng from ftp://ftp.simplesystems.org/pub/libpng/png/src/ 2) Configure libpng for universal binaries with the following command: env CFLAGS="-O -g -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -arch i386 -arch ppc -mmacosx-version-min=10.4" \ LDFLAGS="-arch i386 -arch ppc" \ ./configure --prefix=$XAOS_ROOT/src/ui/ui-drv/cocoa/thirdparty --disable-dependency-tracking Be sure to replace $XAOS_ROOT with the root of your XaoS source folder.
