    The document provides instructions for installing the digikam photo management application on Mac OS X using MacPorts. It notes that digikam must be compiled rather than using a pre-built package. The steps are to install X11, Xcode, and MacPorts, then use MacPorts to install digikam which will trigger a long compilation process. Additional commands are needed to properly load the dbus session and set file ownership before digikam will launch correctly.

    (Beginning of) a (mini mini) "Howto build Digikam on Mac"


    Hi,

    As I have promised when i ask some help on this mailing list, here's a first attempt to build a little howto to compile digikam on macosx via macports...

    It works for me on my Mac Book Pro Snow Leopard.

    --- INSTALL DIGIKAM on MAC OSX mini mini howto ---

    There is no dmg package for digikam, you have to build it using the Macports system, derivated from BSD port system. So the first thing is installing Macports (the definitive way to know what you have to know about Macports is here : http://guide.macports.org/, especially the "using macports" section :
    http://guide.macports.org/#using)

    For installaing Macports you have to : - Install X11 : http://guide.macports.org/#installing.x11 - Install xcode : http://guide.macports.org/#installing.xcode Then you can install Macports :
    http://guide.macports.org/#installing.macports.binary

    You are ready to install digikam : cd /opt/local/var/macports/ sudo port install digikam

    Now, you can go to have 10 or 15 coffees, write a PHD thesis, travel

    some months and you're done, digikam and ALL these dependancies have been built... (10h on a MacBook Pro 2009 4GB RAM).

    At the end of process, you have the following message > ########################################################## > # Don't forget that dbus needs to be started as the local > # user (not with sudo) before any KDE programs will launch > # To start it run the following command: > # launchctl load /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist > ########################################################## > > ###################################################### > # > # > # Programs will not start until you run the command 'sudo chown -R $USER ~/Library/Preferences/KDE' replacing $USER with your username.

    > ######################################################

    So you have to do what Mister Mac tells to you : But, warning, the following command (the one Mister Mac wants you to launch...) outputs "nothing to load"

    launchctl load /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist

    You have to add the "-w" option launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist

    My username is "g", so sudo chown -R g ~/Library/Preferences/KDE sudo chown -R g /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist

    You can launch digikam via double click in App Folder->MacPorts->KDE4->digikam

    ENJOY !!!!!!!!!!
