PREREQUISITES PREREQUISITES
1. Qt/Mac Free Edition, version 4. This library is GPL-licensed Note: Only Qt/Mac is needed for building official LyX releases, and
and can be downloaded from so steps 2 and 3 can be skipped in these cases. Those wanting to

2. automake, version 1.5 or higher (check with automake --version). 1. Qt/Mac Opensource Edition, version 4. This library is GPL-
Probably the easiest way to get this is to use DarwinPorts (from licensed and can be downloaded from
<http://www.trolltech.com/download/qt/mac.html>. To compile it,
create a directory where you want to install QT4. In the following,
the full path to this directory is called /path/to/QT4
Decompress Qt/Mac in a convenient directory, cd to the top of the
Qt source hierarcy, and enter:
./configure -static -no-exceptions -nomake examples -nomake tools -nomake demos -prefix /path/to/QT4
make
make install
cd /path/to/QT4/lib
rm *.la
2. [Needed only for developmental builds:] automake, version 1.5
or higher (check with automake --version). Probably the easiest
way to get this is to use DarwinPorts (from
http://darwinports.opendarwin.org/getdp/) and install automake http://darwinports.opendarwin.org/getdp/) and install automake
using using
sudo port install automake
3. gettext version >= 0.12 (check with gettext --version) sudo port install automake
If the installed version is insufficient the
easiest way to obtain a later version is to get DarwinPorts 3. [Needed only for developmental builds:] gettext version >= 0.12
(from http://darwinports.opendarwin.org/getdp/) and install gettext (check with gettext --version). If the installed version is

"sudo gcc_select 4.0".) where you installed Qt for /path/to/QT4 (as above).
1. Create a directory where you want to install QT4. In the following, (a) Official Releases
the full path to this directory is called /path/to/QT4
Decompress Qt/Mac in a convenient directory, cd to the top of the
Qt source hierarcy, and:
./configure -static -no-exceptions -nomake examples -nomake tools -prefix /path/to/QT4 cd to the top of the LyX source hierarchy, and enter:
make
make install
cd /path/to/QT4/lib
rm *.la
If you don't prescribe -nomake examples -nomake tools in the
configuration you need to make sure you have some 20+ GB of free hard
disk space. Else the installation is about 1GB.
2. The LyX/Mac application bundle skeleton (LyX.app) can be found in
the LyX source hierarchy at development/MacOSX. Copy this bundle to a
directory. In the following, the full path to this directory is called
/path/to/LyX.app. (The default settings assume that this path is
/Applications/LyX.app.)
3. cd to the top of the LyX source hierarchy, and:
export LDFLAGS="-framework Carbon -framework OpenGL -framework AGL -framework QuickTime -lz -framework Cocoa" export LDFLAGS="-framework Carbon -framework OpenGL -framework AGL -framework QuickTime -lz -framework Cocoa"
./autogen.sh ./configure --prefix=/path/to/LyX.app --with-version-suffix=-1.5 --without-x --with-frontend=qt4 --with-qt4-dir=/path/to/QT4 --with-included-gettext --enable-optimization=-Os
./configure --prefix=/path/to/LyX.app --disable-concept-checks --with-version-suffix=-1.5 --with-qt4-dir=/path/to/QT4 --enable-optimization=-Os --without-x --with-included-gettext --with-frontend=qt4 --disable-stdlib-debug
make make
make install-strip make install-strip
(Note that the --with-version-suffix=-1.5 option will result in LyX's (Note that the --with-version-suffix=-1.5 option will result in LyX's
user's directory being located at ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-1.5.) user's directory being located at ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-1.5.)
(b) Developmental Versions (svn checkouts)
Building LyX from developmental sources requires a few more steps.
Instead of the instructions above, do the following:
cd to the top of the LyX source hierarchy, and enter:
export LDFLAGS="-framework Carbon -framework OpenGL -framework AGL -framework QuickTime -lz -framework Cocoa"
./autogen.sh
./configure --prefix=/path/to/LyX.app --with-version-suffix=-1.5 --without-x --with-frontend=qt4 --with-qt4-dir=/path/to/QT4 --with-included-gettext --enable-optimization=-Os --disable-stdlib-debug --disable-concept-checks
