Geeks just have to pay double - but in the end it pays.
This is a first shot at building darwine for Leopard with included freetype for antialiased fonts. It's built against X11 4.2 in the hope to have a result that runs on Tiger and Leopard. But as I don't have a spare external HD to install Tiger, I can not test it atm.
Why did it take so long?
- I was in good hope to get OpenGL running by now... but it's still broken on X11 7.2. So I decided to go for a version that runs on 10.4 and 10.5.
- WineHelper and distrib needed some patching to build on Leopard (patch submitted to darwine project)
- Leopard has a new way of starting X11. Most important, $DISPLAY has to be set correctly - but on Leopard, $DISPLAY is a random value, that is not accessible from within cocoa apps.
[[[NSProcessInfo processInfo] environment] objectForKey:@"DISPLAY"]
will always return @"localhost", which is wrong... another bug.) A way to get the current $DISPLAY if not set by bash isexport DISPLAY="$(find -f /tmp/launch-* -name :0)"
So I hope this will run for Leopard and Tiger users aswell. Feedback is very welcome.
There will be a new ies4osx build, too... just give me some more minutes 😉//www.kronenberg.org/darwine/Darwine-x86-0.9.49_2.dmg
