Sorry, that was in 4 parts, but I tried posting it so many times and it didn't work. For some reason, all of it worked when I split it up?????? Not sure.

Most of this is beyond me, but I'd like to get to a QT environment on OS X. My current problem is in opening the CMakeLists.txt in QT.

I get.

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:64 (find_package):
  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "ECM" (requested
  version 1.7.0) with any of the following names:
 
    ECMConfig.cmake
    ecm-config.cmake
 
  Add the installation prefix of "ECM" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set "ECM_DIR"
  to a directory containing one of the above files.  If "ECM" provides a
  separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed.
 
 
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

I see a file at: /Volumes/Data_Raid/kstars_dev/ASTRO-ROOT/share/ECM/cmake/ECMConfig.cmake

but I'm not sure what the problem is at the moment.

Sorry Rob, if this is more work than it might benefit.

Cheers

Right Jerry, the reason I made the repo and script is because it is incredibly hard to get everything all set up and working starting from scratch, a huge uphill battle. So the idea is that I set up the script so that you can run it, all the hard parts of the setup are done for you, and then you can follow the instructions in the repo to setup qt creator to go ahead and use it. That way you can get all setup to make useful contributions to KStars and INDI without having to deal with all the setup crap.

Based on what you posted, if you are trying to follow my instructions in qt creator to get it set up, I expect you didn’t select the build directory where it is already all setup for you.

For anybody who was waiting for it, the OS X build error in INDI with endian.h was just fixed by the author of the change, so it should be all good now

@rlancaste There is a limitation on the number of url links you can have in a post

Ok, I will try to limit links to 5 or less in a post. Thanks!

Also, do you know why it didn't give me some sort of error message? it also didn't give me one when I entered the wrong password.

Thanks. I had an out-of-date version of that page open in my browser for some time. The "forked-build" helped, as well as actually following your instructions :)

So whether it is forked-build or just build depends on how you configured it in build-env.sh. One complexity there is that I changed it a lot in the last few days and a couple of times I pushed without remembering to reset the options.

I'm running Beta builds on both the MacBook and the StellarMate. Do I have to be concerned with keeping those two code bases aligned or versions not playing nice?
