build fails (mac osx mavericks)

Davids-MacBook-Pro-5:resynthesizer daviddouglas$ ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I /usr/local/Cellar/intltool/0.50.2/share/aclocal" ./autogen.sh

I am testing that you have the required versions of autoconf, automake, glib-gettextize and intltoolize...

-n checking for autoconf >= 2.54 ... yes (version 2.69) -n checking for automake >= 1.6 ... -n checking for glib-gettextize >= 2.0.0 ... yes (version 2.38.2) -n checking for intltool >= 0.17 ... yes (version 0.50.2)

I am going to run ./configure with the following arguments:

--enable-maintainer-mode

If you wish to pass additional arguments, please specify them on the ./autogen.sh command line or set the AUTOGEN_CONFIGURE_ARGS environment variable.

Please add the files codeset.m4 gettext.m4 glibc21.m4 iconv.m4 isc-posix.m4 lcmessage.m4 progtest.m4 from the /usr/local/octave/3.8.0/share/aclocal directory to your autoconf macro directory or directly to your aclocal.m4 file. You will also need config.guess and config.sub, which you can get from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config/.

Configure failed or did not finish!

[bootchk]

Do you have GIMP installed? Resynthesizer links with GIMP libraries. The Resynthesizer code can be built as a library that doesn't require GIMP, but the build scripts probably don't support that, and I don't know of any developer that does it.

Yes I have gimp installed, but the (various) libraries may not be linking correctly as it is a Mac OS X Application installation

[bootchk]

I am not an expert, but PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GIMP, gives me a hint that the Resynthesizer build scripts (which I borrowed from GIMP project) use the notion of a 'package manager'. I don't think the MacOS supports the notion of a package manager. If you are using MacPorts (or another tool), it might support the notion of a package manager. In this case, the Resynthesizer configure is trying to determine whether GIMP is installed, and where the GIMP libraries are?

If all you want is to USE the Resynthesizer, maybe you could find it already built for the Mac. If you want to learn how to build Resynthesizer for the Mac, I have never done that, but the same person who has built it for the Mac and distributes it (somewhere on the web) might be able to help you build for the Mac. But again, unless you want to alter the Resynthesizer, there is little reason to build it yourself.
