Find attached what needs to be done before the dmg creation.

File Name: kstars_libs.txt
File Size:3 KB


This will get a working kstars as in you can start the Indi but will crash on take picture (work in progress).

CAUTION:
I have only amended the libs for two Indi_simulator as in CCD and Telescope.
Must find a way to alter a bunch of libs at the same time....

try this:
brew list | grep wcs

for me it shows wcslib - if you don't see that try
brew install homebrew/science/wcslib

As I have not included Astrometry nor WCS, I have disabled it in kstars but it still crashes with the same error:

So it's not the WCS, then maybe if that one ^^ ?
I know that the dmg file worked fine on my last install of the MBA (dev machine) but not on the MBP.


edit:
Stephanes-MacBook-Air:~ stephanelucas$ brew list | grep gsc
gsc

but, didn't we have to do/copy something over?

I thought that we decided those would be outside of the path because they added like 300mb to the size.

I don't have it set up either and it doesn't crash for that here.

Lacking GSC should not cause kstars to crash, nor the ccd simulator since it will just generate a picture that looks like a dark if there is no gsc installed.

And yes, we had decided that installing gsc should be a separate step. Basically to get gsc, you have to follow the instructions from before and copy the gsc folder to your data folder in ~/Library/Application support/kstars

For gsc, I am thinking it might be good to make that either a zip file they can download or maybe a "download new stuff" item

Ok.

The problem with testing the dmg file on your dev laptop is that lots of libs are in /usr/local etc... but none of that in a non dev laptop like I have access to.
Are you guys testing the new dmg on a clean laptop?

I haven't tried a DMG, waiting on the definitive otool instructions.

I have posted something already about otool and install_name. have you seen it?
I know it's only for two simulators, but it's decent enough to test kstars really.
