How can I test this using the latest darwinbuild 0.5? I can build from a G3 running OS X 10.3 and try to run on an Athlon XP running OpenDarwin 7.2.1. Also, how do I perform a 'make clean' once a package has been built? Michael

[darwinbuild] Building root/header packages
by Michael Franz 29 Jul '05

29 Jul '05

Using darwinbuild, how do I create a root package? When I build I get a directory that I think I think is root. And it might be that simple, but where are the headers if there are header packages a project? - O.K. might be as clear as it could be, but I am not near my system to actually look. What I want to do is build the bsm-2.11 root package, which seems to depend on bsm-2.11 . Is it valid to build this in a non-chroot environment to create the root package? Can I just fake the bsm-2.11 requirement by renaming bsm-2.10 to bsm-2.11? TIA Michael

[darwinbuild] darwinxref changes
by Kevin Van Vechten 09 Jul '05

09 Jul '05

I've committed largely re-written version of darwinxref to CVS at proj/darwinbuild/darwinxref. Some of the major changes include: * NeXT-style property list support -- XML was illegible, but will still be supported. * Build plists now contain a dictionary of projects, not an array. -- Makes syntax more consistent with semantics. -- Improved viewing in the Property List Editor. * Dependency property is a dictionary of dependency types. -- Better organization of dependencies in the plist. * Plug-in architecture for build plist properties. -- Provide future and site-specific extensibility. -- Potential for integration with DarwinPorts. - Kevin

[darwinbuild] Experimental DarwinPorts Support

I've just committed a 'plugins-darwinports' directory which adds experimental support for indexing Portfiles from DarwinPorts.

[darwinbuild] chroot environment
by Michael Franz 20 Jun '05

20 Jun '05

Hi, After spending a fair bit of time this weekend trying to build gcc, I got hung up on the requirements to do a chroot build. Since something is missing from my environment (dyld is there) how do I go about figuring out what else is missing? Michael

[darwinbuild] Adding source_sites to older plists
by Michael Franz 20 Jun '05

Hi, Here is a patch to add source_sites to the 7H63, 7R28, 7S15 plist files. I used diff -u . If I need to use other parameters please let me know and I will send a new file. Michael

[darwinbuild] darwinbuild and libkld.a
by Chris Cooksey 15 Jun '05

15 Jun '05

Oops. Apologies for asking for libkld.a. It turns out that there are a boatload of things needed before running darwinbuild. I have all the build tools built now. I think I am a bit confused though. I built all the tools myself, manually. But the readme kind of indicates that the tools will be built by the make file. I didn't see that happen, but then again, I had problems with the disk image that I originally created. Maybe I just replicated a bunch of effort! Sorry for the newbie stumblings. Chris.

[darwinbuild] darwinbuild and libkld.a
by Chris Cooksey 15 Jun '05

15 Jun '05

I have been trying to build xnu 792 and xnu 792.5.1 on Mac OS 10.4.1. The first thing I ran into was that I had to use gcc_select to switch to gcc 3.3. Maybe the readme could point this out and suggest how to find out what version of gcc is required to build particular versions of xnu. The next thing I have run into is that I don't have a required file: /usr/local/lib/libkld.a I have figured out that I need to build the cctools to get this file, but I am having trouble with the distribution from Apple. I think I may be able to get it working, but it would be nice if darwinbuild either installed or built this library automatically. Thanks, Chris.

[darwinbuild] Building with chroot
by Michael Franz 12 Jun '05

12 Jun '05

After some investigation I have found that the chroot build does not work (at least for my setup). When the chroot command executes it returns with 'Illegal instruction'. This the line on the console after I removed the stderr/stdout redirects. bin/darwinbuild: line 575: 985 Illegal instruction Any thoughts? Michael

[darwinbuild] Unmounting chroot drive
by Michael Franz 12 Jun '05

12 Jun '05

After attempting to build using the chroot option, I am unable to unmount the drive. The darwinbuild script has comments about this, but I think the script is suppose to prevent this. So, the only way to unmount the drive is to restart. A real pain. Michael
