# Instructions for building Deluge.app
## 1. Compiler
- To build deluge and the gtk osx modules, you must use `gcc`
- This has been successfully working with :
- gcc 4.2.1 - Xcode 4.1 - Mac OSX Lion (10.7.2)
- llvm-gcc 4.2.1 - Xcode 4.3.1 (With Command line utilities) - Mac OSX Lion (10.7.3)
- Check your version of gcc using `gcc -v`
## 2. GTK-OSX [jhbuild][1] environment
Quick how-to *(from the full [GTK-OSX building][2] instructions)*
1. Create a dedicated user account and use it for all the next steps:
*Note*: I'm using `gtk` login with `/opt/gtk` as home an jhbuild prefix
sudo su - gtk
cat << EOF > ~/.profile
export PATH=~/.local/bin:~/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/git/bin
EOF
. ~/.profile
2. Download and run the [gtk-osx-build-setup][3] script to install jhbuild:
curl -O https://raw.github.com/jralls/gtk-osx-build/master/gtk-osx-build-setup.sh
sh gtk-osx-build-setup.sh
3. Link or copy deluge osx jhbuildrc-custom:
*Note*: This setup builds only for `x86_64` arch to `/opt/gtk`
prefix, feel free to edit
ln -sf deluge/osx/jhbuildrc-custom ~/.jhbuildrc-custom
4. Build jhbuild and its modulesets: *(takes a while...)*
jhbuild bootstrap && jhbuild
*Note*: If you encounter an error while building `glib` like:
gconvert.c:65:2: error: #error GNU libiconv not in use but included iconv.h is from libiconv
Start a shell from jhbuild (#4), edit the file `vim glib/gconvert.c +65`
to delete the section raising error, which is irrelevant. *(Lion
iconv.h looks like gnu one, but it is not)*
Then exit the shell and resume build (#1)
5. Build the deluge moduleset: *(takes a while...)*
*Note*: This jhbuild moduleset *should* build and install all deluge
dependencies not available in gtk-osx
jhbuild -m deluge/osx/deluge.modules build deluge
## 3. Build Deluge.app
1. Always do your custom build operations under a jhbuild shell:
jhbuild shell
2. Cleanup:
python setup.py clean -a
3. Build and install:
python setup.py py2app
python setup.py install
4. Build app to `deluge/osx/app/Deluge.app`:
cd osx
./make-app.sh
You *should* have now a working Deluge.app
i386 Notes:
- Uncomment the relevant sections of :
- jhbuildrc-custom
- deluge.modules
- setup.cfg
- deluge egg has to be named without the -macosx-10.6-intel suffix
- To build for i386 under a x64 arch libtorrent python bindings have to be
patched manually to set correct arch see macports package patch
## Issues
If Deluge.app doesn't work or crash the first thing to do is to check OSX
Console for logs and/or crash reports. Alternatively, you can enable python
log by uncommenting the end of script `Deluge.app/Contents/MacOS/Deluge`
Recent jhbuild issues:
- Some jhbuild modules fails to build, freetype and gtk-mac-integration,
strangely configure is not called before build/install.
- If that happens, just force rebuild with something like:
jhbuild build -cf gtk-mac-integration-python
- Interrupt while building with ctrl-C and wipe to start over if configure missing
### Known issues
- **i386**: libtorrent crash
- **i18n**: English only for now
- **Magnet URLs**: Not currently supported by GTK-OSX
