Re: [Bug-gnubg] Native osx?

[Christian Anthon]

Hi Fabian,

the main problem is the underlying gtk library. It mainly works with
X11 or ms windows backends. There are some efforts underway to develop
an osx port of gtk:

http://developer.imendio.com/projects/gtk-macosx

so I suggest that you take a look at that and see how it works.

Another problem might be the freetype library that we use, but that
could (and should) be ported to use pango/cairo instead.

I don't know how you will fare in terms of Makefile, config.h, cflags
and linker flags, but that should be solvable as well.

Christian.
