[BitPim-devel] mac building again

ok, I am back at this, once again.

So far:

Python 2.5 - no problem, .dmg installer is available here:
<http://www.pythonmac.org/packages/py25-fat/dmg/python-2.5-macosx.dmg>

wxPython 2.8.4.2 unicode - no problem installer is available here:
<http://internap.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/wxpython/wxPython2.8-
osx-unicode-2.8.4.2-universal-py2.5.dmg>

pyserial 2.2 - no problem, source available here:
<http://internap.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/pyserial/
pyserial-2.2.zip>
cd /path/to/directory then
python setup.py install

and I think I am golden


Now, here's the stopping block, again

I can download APSW apsw-3.3.13-r1, but where is sqlite?

should I pull the SVN'd copy? do I use that setup.py? will that put
things where they need to be?

on my last attempts to get this going from source, it was apsw that
fouled me, so I am hesitant to just start trying things....




Any help with steps for getting that last part done would be much
appreciated

tia!

You need sqlite 3.4.1 which you can get here: http://www.sqlite.org/sqlite3-3.4.1.bin.gz . You probably want to install it in /usr/local by running the configure script with --prefix=/usr/local

Once you have it installed you will need to set the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to /usr/local/lib or else BitPim will not run (in my experience).

You need sqlite 3.4.1 which you can get here: http://www.sqlite.org/
sqlite3-3.4.1.bin.gz . You probably want to install it in /usr/
local by running the configure script with --prefix=/usr/local
ok, in the past i have downloaded .tar.gz versions... this in a .bin
file, and I am not sure how to deal it (I can't decompress the .bin,
but don't know if it is supposed to either)

am I supposed to just plop it in /usr/local/bin ? (I doubt it)

DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to /usr/local/lib or else BitPim will not run (in
my experience).
ok, again, I am not sure where, which file specifically, this path
would be defined in...

Thanks for any clarifications



PS thanks Dave for reminding me about python 2.5.1

This is an incorrect link the file extract from the archive is an
ELF format executable which can not run on MacOS X or windows OSs. It
is in fact a Linux only binary. Check this page http://www.sqlite.org/
download.html.

right, and that brings me back to square one...

I see the source for 3.4.2 http://www.sqlite.org/sqlite-3.4.2.tar.gz

oh, duh, I could just change the link to http://www.sqlite.org/
sqlite-3.4.1.tar.gz
couldn't I !

ok, so I need to make/build 3.4.1, right?

Oh how I wish the whole apsw thing weren't such a stumbling block

off to go make...

Sorry for the wrong link... Thought I copied the correct one. You figured it out before I had a chance to correct myself :)

You will need python 2.5.1 for the svn sources now.
Have fun.
