Hi,

For the last few days I'm trying to compile the msdosfs package from source, without luck so far. Tried both with XCode under 10.4.11 and 10.5.3, and with 'darwinbuild', also on both releases.

Did anybody succesfully build msdosfs from the source at opensource.apple.com? Is 'darwinbuild' the way to go (although it looks like it hasn't been updated for quite a long time), or should one manually search & copy all header, libs etc. to get a build?

Links to any help would be great!

Thanks,
   Bart
About which Darwin Build are you talking about ? The darwin build svn trunk contains change that are 6 days old ? Is it what you are calling "quite a long time" ?
http://darwinbuild.macosforge.org/trac/browser/trunk
Thanks for your reply! I checked out darwinbuild with 'svn co http://svn.macosforge.org/repository/darwinbuild/trunk darwinbuild'. The README says it's updated last at '4-Oct-2006' and the CHANGES last mentioned release is 'Release 0.7.2 [31-Oct-2005]', so therefore my feeling I'm using the wrong/old tools to build....

When I follow the README and init with '9C31' a command like 'darwinbuild cctools' did work (I googled that I needed this one because it's missing in the chroot instalation). But the command 'darwinbuild msdosfs' ends with 'xcodebuild: Error: the directory /SourceCache/msdosfs/msdosfs-136 does not contain an Xcode project.'
I'm building on a 10.5.3 machine.



[ This thread should probably move to email@hidden ]


First, msdosfs is missing some dependencies, you'll probably need to load zlib, bsm, and configd. I still had trouble building it but havnt had a chance to look into it. You could always try copying the missing frameworks off of your host partition. (You'll see what it complains about). To load the dependencies, for example:

darwinbuild -load zlib

And the "does not contain an xcode project" is a known bug. Its tracked by <http://darwinbuild.macosforge.org/trac/ticket/1>. The best workaround is to build on a UFS partition (disk image, etc).

Oh, and the README, release notes, etc, are very much out of date. I will make a new release once Leopard/Xcode3 support is better. What is on trunk is my latest work and should be reasonably stable. You can always find me on freenode at #macosforge if you want to ping me with new issues. Also feel free to file tickets in our Trac.

I'll see about updating the wiki/docs/news so it doesnt look so out of date.

Thanks for the info, I should be able to get it further from here! Will post on darwinbuild-dev if I have any further questions.

Cheers,
	Bart
