Re: [Inkscape-devel] Rejuvenated build system for Mac OS X
Yes, the osxmenu branch is looking really fantastic. I believe though that those builds are hosted on su_v’s personal drobox account, and considering the amount of traffic this thread has been getting (it’s over 10k views now), it may be better to share them as torrents or mirror them somewhere else so su_v’s account doesn’t get hammered.

There seem to be "semi-detached" discussions going on at the nabble mirror of the 'inkscape-devel' mailing list.
@all - please keep this discussion on the 'inkscape-devel' mailing list. If you want to contribute to the discussion, subscribe to it via sourceforge.net. Messages posted on a web mirror of the mailing list archive are _not_ automatically forwarded to the list unless you are subscribed to the list yourself.
Personally, I will not check the nabble server regularly for comments which have not been accepted by the mailing list server.
As mentioned in the original thread about the pending release of Inkscape 0.48.5 (a different thread than this one), the builds / packages based on the 'osxmenu' branches are still at an experimental stage right now. Please do _not_ distribute those builds without my knowledge elsewhere (mirror, or as torrents, or whatever). Do not post links to the dropbox folder outside of the 'inkscape-devel' mailing list either, thx (frizzlefry is right about this being my personal dropbox account, as explained in my original mail).
Hopefully, in the near future there will be official OS X development builds available for download via links on the official download page at inkscape.org.
Please note also that the 'osxmenu' branch is not the same as the packages in discussed in this (old) thread, and that su_v and Valerio Aimale are not the same person.
Thx, su_v
do you have any updated builds? the latest I found was from over a year ago I'm sure there has been some motifications since then on the "native" inkscape. Thanks, Ian

I downloaded su_v version on my Mac running Mavericks. I was able to build and run Inkscape. It's very very nice.
Thank's ~suv for your efforts! I don't use Macport or any other build system relying on my own gtk builds. I used my gray interface with white icons from gnome-looks.org ( http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Inkscape+white+icons?content=162382). My builds are compatible with Snow-Leopard (64-bit) and above.
Couple of minor issues: On a Mac, usually preference and about are in the main menu and I was not able to open EPS files (got a parsing error with "expecting "<" ...).

I did mention the menu layout as missing feature several times (here on the mailing list and on the branch page too). Patches are welcome :-)
and I was not able to open EPS files (got a parsing error with "expecting "<" ...).
Since you don't share details about how your app was created (I assume you used custom packaging routines, too, besides your own build env for the dependencies), I can only guess what the underlying issue might be:
1) Is your Inkscape.app (Inkscape-0.48-dev) able to open PDF files? (these kind of parser errors are known from contexts where PDF support in Inkscape is broken - e.g. because poppler was configured without xpdf headers, or not built in at all).
(If poppler support was not properly compiled in, 'org.inkscape.input.pdf' might be a logged missing dependency for input formats like PS and EPS (see 'extension-errors.log' in the inkscape user profile dir used by Inkscape.app - the exact location depends on whether you used the launcher script of the 'osxmenu' branch, or your own)).
2) Did you verify that the bundled ps2pdf and GhostScript (I assume you included it in the app bundle, since it is a required helper app for PostScript input in Inkscape) works as expected?

Sorry, I missed it. This is a prolific list and I was concentrating on getting Windows sorted out. :)
and I was not able to open EPS files (got a parsing error with "expecting "<" ...).
Since you don't share details about how your app was created (I assume you used custom packaging routines, too, besides your own build env for the dependencies), I can only guess what the underlying issue might be:
I build all gtk/glib dependencies from scratch, everything I need for Gimp
(you can check out my Gimp builds on my website).
I downloaded your branch and built the Inkscape App using the same structure as my Gimp builds. The Inkscape App like my Gimp builds is self contained and does not rely on the User for any dylibs.
- Is your Inkscape.app (Inkscape-0.48-dev) able to open PDF files?
(these kind of parser errors are known from contexts where PDF support in Inkscape is broken - e.g. because poppler was configured without xpdf headers, or not built in at all).
See above. My builds have poppler configured with xpdf headers and associated dependencies included. My Gimp builds open PDF/EPS/PS just fine. :) I'll be happy to share my Inkscape build with you (or anyone) if needed.
(If poppler support was not properly compiled in, 'org.inkscape.input.pdf' might be a logged missing dependency for input formats like PS and EPS (see 'extension-errors.log' in the inkscape user profile dir used by Inkscape.app - the exact location depends on whether you used the launcher script of the 'osxmenu' branch, or your own)).
- Did you verify that the bundled ps2pdf and GhostScript (I assume you
included it in the app bundle, since it is a required helper app for PostScript input in Inkscape) works as expected?
I was going to build ps2pdf till I saw the bugreport where you said that one does not need it anymore. Gimp does not need ps2pdf to open EPS files (or Ghostscript for that matter). Just the dylib. I'll build ps2pdf and recheck this.
You can see a screenshot here: http://www.partha.com/temp/McInkscape-0.48-dev.png
Great :)
Thanks. :) Indebted to you for all the hard work. Just trying to help.

So your Inkscape.app build does open PDF files or not? Please note that GIMP's PostScript import feature is different from Inkscape.
(If poppler support was not properly compiled in, 'org.inkscape.input.pdf' might be a logged missing dependency for input formats like PS and EPS (see 'extension-errors.log' in the inkscape user profile dir used by Inkscape.app - the exact location depends on whether you used the launcher script of the 'osxmenu' branch, or your own)).

Which bug report for inkscape - do you have a link? I can't imagine that I said that Inkscape no longer needs ps2pdf for EPS/PS import (it still does).
In Inkscape, PS/EPS import works in two steps: 1) the PostScript file is converted to a PDF file with ps2pdf from Ghostscript (needs to be in $PATH). 2) the just created PDF file is imported in Inkscape using built-in (poppler-based) routines.
