LyX/Mac is built from the LyX source, the GPL-licensed Trolltech
Qt/Mac library, and a custom application bundle.
You will need the MacOSX development tools. The procedure described
here builds LyX linked with a static Qt library. Also note that
building LyX/Mac requires gcc version 4.0 or higher. (You can check
your version by entering "gcc -v" in the Terminal; you can change
your gcc version to version 4.0, for example, by entering
"sudo gcc_select 4.0".)
here builds LyX linked with a shared Qt library. Also note that
building LyX/Mac requires gcc version 4.0 or higher.
You may build LyX with different SDK versions resulting in different
minimum required MacOSX versions. The first supported version is
10.4 (Tiger) for which the build has to use gcc4.0.

2. [Needed only for developmental builds:] automake, version 1.10
This will result in an Qt library set for i386 and ppc applications.
To build Qt with Tiger support run configure with:
CC=gcc-4.0 OBJC=gcc-4.0 CXX=g++-4.0 \
./configure -opensource -silent -shared -release -universal -fast \

-nomake tools -no-framework \
-prefix /path/to/Qt4
To build the libraries with 64bit architecture you have to replace the
"-universal" option with "-arch x86_64". Note: you cannot build Qt with
32bit and 64bit mixed architecture mode. (At least not with Qt4.6)
And the build with 64bit has known problems - so it's not recommended.
2. [Needed only for developmental builds:] automake, version 1.10.1

In what follows, /path/to/LyX.app is the location where you want LyX
to create the LyX binary. You should substitute something appropriate,
like: ~/Desktop/LyX.app. Also, substitute the appropriate path to
where you installed Qt for /path/to/QT4 (as above).
where you installed Qt for /path/to/Qt4 (as above).
(a) Official Releases
Dependent on the Qt-libraries you have and the build system you're using
you have to tell configure the compiler and compiler options to use.
If your Qt-libraries don't match your compiler defaults you may
adjust some environment variables to do so.
If you did not install pkg-config, first set the LDFLAGS variable:
1. Environment
export LDFLAGS="-framework Carbon -framework OpenGL -framework AGL -framework QuickTime -framework Cocoa"
(a) Qt-4.6 libraries from Nokia or self compiled universal libs
Then, cd to the top of the LyX source hierarchy, and enter:
Since MacOSX 10.6 the default is to compile 64bit applications.
We have to change that with if on that build system.
./configure --prefix=/path/to/LyX.app --with-version-suffix=-2.0 --with-qt4-dir=/path/to/QT4 --with-included-gettext --enable-optimization=-O2
export CPPFLAGS="-arch i386"
export LDFLAGS="-arch i386"
(b) Qt-4.6 libraries 64bit
You're at least on MacOSX 10.6 and don't have to change anything.
Note: Your LyX binary will run only on 10.6 64bit Intel machines.
Additionally you'll have to provide your Qt libraries somehow...
FIXME: actually this is a dream, 64bit LyX crashes on startup!
(c) Qt-4.6 libraries self compiled with Tiger support
You have to choose the gcc4.0 compiler suite and the correct SDK:
export CC=gcc-4.0
export OBJC=gcc-4.0
export CXX=g++-4.0
export CPPFLAGS="-arch i386 -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -mmacosx-version-min=10.4"
export LDFLAGS="-arch i386 -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -mmacosx-version-min=10.4"
(d) When working without pkgconfig or pkgconfig fails to detect frameworks
Current pkgconfig from macports is able to detect the frameworks Qt4 is using.
The build of LyX succeeds because the frameworks are added automatically to the linker options.
If you need to add them yourself because of link errors, e. g.
lyx Undefined symbols: "_FSPathMakeRef"...
you have to verify the required frameworks with otool and add them to the LDFLAGS.
Check the output of
otool -L /path/to/QT4/lib/libQtGui.dylib
and look for lines with Frameworks.
Currently there are two different Qt4 builds available for download:
* with Tiger support it's with Carbon. You have to add
export LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -framework ApplicationServices -framework Carbon -framework AppKit"
* with Cocoa framework without Tiger support you have to add
export LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -framework ApplicationServices -framework Cocoa -framework AppKit"
Note: The latter is untested.
2. Configure and build

somewhat slows LyX down. If it is a real problem, you can pass the
option --enable-build-type=release to configure.
(c) Distribution build
The distribution package build of LyX is supported by the shell script
"LyX-Mac-binary-release.sh" in the development sub-directory of the
LyX source hierarchy.
Please read the script if you're about to make a distributable disk image.
To use it, cd to the top of the LyX source hierarchy, and enter:
sh development/LyX-Mac-binary-release.sh --with-qt4-dir=/path/to/Qt4
This script automates all steps of the build process.
It detects the sources for Qt4, Aspell and Hunspell when placed in a
sibling directory and builds them ready to use for LyX packaging.
These libraries are then bundled with the LyX application as private
frameworks. Therefore the Qt4 libraries are build as frameworks.
Per default the resulting LyX application is build for ppc and i386
to be usable on all systems from Tiger upwards.
