To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install dependencies with brew install gettext gobject-introspection autoconf-archive gtk+ gtk-mac-integration gtkmm3 automake boost (note the addition of automake and boost, which were necessary to get past ./configure step)

  2. Try to do brew link --force gettext libffi and not the following error:

    Warning: Already linked: /usr/local/Cellar/gettext/0.21
To relink, run:
  brew unlink gettext && brew link gettext
Warning: Refusing to link macOS provided/shadowed software: libffi
For compilers to find libffi you may need to set:
  export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/libffi/lib"
  export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/libffi/include"

For pkg-config to find libffi you may need to set:
  export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/opt/libffi/lib/pkgconfig"
  3. Do export commands as brew instructs
  4. ./autogen.sh
  5. ./configure
  6. make
  7. See error message after a minute.

Expected behavior Compilation should succeed

** macOS:

The macOS port of Workrave is no longer being maintained and will soon be removed (unless someone wants to invest time in getting it to work). So I will close this report as "won't fix".

I am working on a macOS port using Qt. You can compile this version using cmake. E.g.

CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/local//Cellar/qt/6.1.2/lib/cmake/1 PATH=/usr/local/opt/gettext/bin/:$PATH cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX= -DWITH_UI=Qt6 -DWITH_TESTS=ON -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_PATH="/usr/local/opt/gettext/include" -DCMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/opt/gettext/lib" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE_INIT=Debug -DWITH_TRACING=TRUE -DCMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS=TRUE -DBoost_NO_BOOST_CMAKE=TRUE ninja install

This requires a number of packages from homebrew (qt6, gettext, ninja, cmake). The macOS port still has some issues that will be fixed in the near future.

Is there an issue or somewhere to track/collaborate on the progress of the macOS port using Qt? <3

Thanks @rcaelers for your work on a macOS version. I used your build command as a starting point and got Workrave to build and install, but when run it causes a segfault. Detailed steps to repeat and the cash report has been stuffed into a gist.
