Building on macOS

[PhilipTrauner]

I don't have the slightest idea how the build system works but I managed to get cmusfm to build on macOS by manually adding the generated Makefile in build/src/Makefile (Line 277).

Before:

cmusfm_CFLAGS =  $(am__append_2)

After:

cmusfm_CFLAGS = -L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib -I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include $(am__append_2)

openssl has to be installed with homebrew.

I'd really appreciate a "fix" and would gladly help testing!

Hi,

I'm not a OSX user, so it is hard for me to debug it. However, have you seen the #6 issue. The installation process on OSX has been explained there, I think. If the instructions provided there will not help, I will remove the openssl dependency (at least for OSX).

Should have looked at closed issues before opening a new one. Still, the problem seems to be a different one now.

Running make with unmodified CFLAGS results in a linker error.

gcc -D_REENTRANT -I/usr/local/Cellar/libnotify/0.7.7/include -I/usr/local/Cellar/gdk-pixbuf/2.36.2/include/gdk-pixbuf-2.0 -I/usr/local/Cellar/libpng/1.6.27/include/libpng16 -I/usr/local/Cellar/glib/2.50.2/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/local/Cellar/glib/2.50.2/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/local/opt/gettext/include -I/usr/local/Cellar/pcre/8.39/include    -o cmusfm cmusfm-cache.o cmusfm-config.o cmusfm-libscrobbler2.o cmusfm-server.o cmusfm-utils.o cmusfm-main.o cmusfm-notify.o -lcurl -lcrypto -lz -L/usr/local/Cellar/libnotify/0.7.7/lib -L/usr/local/Cellar/gdk-pixbuf/2.36.2/lib -L/usr/local/Cellar/glib/2.50.2/lib -L/usr/local/opt/gettext/lib -lnotify -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lgio-2.0 -lgobject-2.0 -lglib-2.0 -lintl
ld: library not found for -lcrypto
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

After running export CFLAGS='-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib -I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include' and ../configure --enable-libnotify the make command succeeds but throws warnings that '-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib'was unused during compilation. So I removed it from my CFLAGS (export CFLAGS='-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include') and suddenly the linker error is back.

The md5 header issue seems to be fixed tough, I never ran into it.

This is the output of the commands mentioned in #6.

Please, try the code from the md5 branch. I've removed the mandatory dependency for OpenSSL. If the MD5 functionality is not usable, then the bundled version is used. This should fix the compilation issue on OS X once and for all.

If anyone could confirm, that this solutions works, I'd be much obliged. I will try to test it by myself after this weekend.

I just updated my MacBook to 10.12.3 and the master as well as the md5 branch build without errors. Either there was a change in 10.12.3 that made it work (which I can't imagine) or there is something seriously wrong with my 10.12.2 machine. Thank you very much, consider it fixed! 😃
