Re: [Banshee-List] Building Banshee on Mac OS X (Lion)

[David Nielsen <gnomeuser gmail com>]

it might also be worth mentioning that currently the latest alpha bundle crashes on startup on Mountain Lion. It looks like a Mono bug from the trace I get. I am investigating to see what happened in the last developer preview and the final release to make this stop working but even getting a good bockbuild instance is hard going.

For the gtk-quartz bug, please file it and cc John Ralls (or poke me and I will do it). He is normally the king at tracking down such problems. It just needs to be filed with debug symbols.

Hi kakyoism, I would be glad to know if there is any chance to see the

future builds of Banshee work in Snow Leopard. If not, perhaps it is the

last little push that I need to upgrade to Lion XD

well, the build should actually complete successfully on Snow Leopard. The

alpha bundles[1] I do are also built for Snow Leopard, but here is the

catch: Due to a nasty gtk-quartz bug, Banshee will crash upon startup on

SL. I've tried to narrow down that bug a little but its quite hard to

debug and my C skills are limited, so far I couldn't came up with a

testcase to report it. And even if I can manage to do that, chances are

slim it gets fixed, gtk-quarz backend isn't that good maintened as its

linux counterpart.
