Pretty sure that I see at least one thing that would mess up the cmake build in the script. playing w/ it now

HA!

OK- update on the cmake. I went back to trying it with the brew qt, and that works (well, AFTER I figured out that when I copied the kstars file it was losing the execute bit- that is two hours of my life I won't get back). When I move to the download qt, it crashes- and qt is in the crashed thread (but it might be in all threads):
Thread 0 Crashed:: Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread
0   org.qt-project.QtCore               0x000000010edf199f QString::operator=(QString const&) + 31
1   libKF5Crash.5.dylib                 0x000000010b3b9de4 KCrash::setApplicationFilePath(QString const&) + 571
2   libKF5Crash.5.dylib                 0x000000010b3b9692 KCrash::initialize() + 93
3                                       0x000000010a88d59e main + 270
4   libdyld.dylib                       0x00007fffbc1a2255 start + 1

I am not going to force the usage of the brew qt - because:
1) we all know that it takes long to build
2) it would require a bit of surgery on the scripts.

I will check in the scripts as they are now - because it is closer. if you guys can find a happy medium than I am all ears, but I am calling it a day.

Attached is that full crash log when using the downloaded qt vs brew

Thank you guys for the effort, I will do more tomorrow!

And If I had to be a muppet, it would probably be Beaker or Kermit.

Rob,

follow up from my previous post, I was able to install kf5-kplotting

Now the all thing was possible with:
--interactive --ignore-dependencies

Jamie, fyi, my emerge dmg build still crashes on the MBP. I can't figure it out what's really different with yours now.

Just thinking out loud here, is there really a problem in having "brew install qt5" and the Qt5 dmg installed on the same machine at once? They are installed in different location. I want to be sure we are not wasting time in trying to solve a problem which is not there, if you know what I mean.

Having both installed, if there is no conflict, the emerge uses the Qt5 dmg and the cmake uses the brew Qt5, no?


edit:
in fact, I'm doing a brew install qt5 now
alongside my already install qt5 dmg

mmmm this is interesting and annoying at the same time :(

I've done a brew install qt5 and that was done and dusted in minutes.

and I thought, heh what's the deal with this Qt5, it's installed so I go ahead do a "brew install kf5-kplotting".
and that one actually wipe clean my already installed Qt5 (brew installed one) and install Qt5 from source !!!!



so this is a WTF moment ....


so reading the install process at github.com/haraldF/homebrew-kf5
it does say:and then brew install haraldf/kf5/kf5-karchive

But why is it trying to download qt5 again and compile it from source !?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Potential work around for this issue so that we do not have to wait hours and hours...

Download the archive:
untar:
cmake it:
make and sudo make install it:



I guess we could script the above, and we have now KF5 ....
and yes I have brew qt5 installed, less then 5 min to do.


What are your views on the above guys?
