#55 error with make under macOS

[Anonymous]

Make under macOS Sonoma 14.4 is not possible.
The following error is issued:

install_name_tool -id @executable_path/../Frameworks/libfreetype.6.dylib out/Denise.app/Contents/Frameworks/libfreetype.6.dylib
error: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/install_name_tool: input file: out/Denise.app/Contents/Frameworks/libfreetype.6.dylib is not a Mach-O file
make: *** [build] Error 1

It says that the freetype library is not a valid macOS binary.
check your freetype lib: /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib
or compile freetype by yourself

download latest source of freetype
./configure --enable-static --without-zlib --without-bzip2
make
sudo make install

Thanks for this hint.
i allready had installed freetype before,
but this command was helpfull:
sudo ln -s /opt/homebrew/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib
this also works:
sudo ln -s /Applications/Denise.app/Contents/Frameworks/libfreetype.6.dylib /usr/local/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib

But now i'm facing the next problem:
File "data/dmgSettings.py", line 4, in <module>
import biplist
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'biplist'
make: *** [install] Error 1</module>

After i have manged to install biplist in an virtual environment, i'm facing the next problem:
  File "data/dmgSettings.py", line 25
plist biplist.readPlist(plist_path)
      ^^^^^^^

SyntaxError: invalid syntax
make: *** [install] Error 1

I'm not sure how to go on

Seems it's not working, i stuck agein in this error:

File "data/dmgSettings.py", line 4, in <module>
import biplist
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'biplist'
make: *** [install] Error 1</module>

I have noticed, that the make command allready has build the denise app in the 'out' folder, So it is not necassary to use the 'sudo make install' command.

Thanks for your attantion

python -m pip install biplist

I tried this allready before:

xxxxx@xxxxx-iMac ~ % python -m pip install biplist
error: externally-managed-environment

× This environment is externally managed
╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try brew install
xyz, where xyz is the package you are trying to
install.

If you wish to install a non-brew-packaged Python package,
create a virtual environment using python3 -m venv path/to/venv.
Then use path/to/venv/bin/python and path/to/venv/bin/pip.

If you wish to install a non-brew packaged Python application,
it may be easiest to use pipx install xyz, which will manage a
virtual environment for you. Make sure you have pipx installed.

note: If you believe this is a mistake, please contact your Python installation or OS distribution provider. You can override this, at the risk of breaking your Python installation or OS, by passing --break-system-packages.
hint: See PEP 668 for the detailed specification.

dmgbuild APP uses "dmgSettings.py" to build DMG from APP.
I adjusted the default "dmgSettings.py" file at that time. I'm not familiar with the Python syntax though it seems the function "icon_from_app" in "dmgSettings.py" reads the ICON name from the "info.plist" in APP folder .
It uses "biplist" for this. This seems to be problematic under newer macOS versions.
I don't have Sonoma installed at the moment. But it is probably recommended to swap "biplist".
If you have time, you can try customizing this function.

def icon_from_app(app_path):
    plist_path = os.path.join(app_path, 'Contents', 'Info.plist')
    plist = biplist.readPlist(plist_path)
    icon_name = plist['CFBundleIconFile']
    icon_root,icon_ext = os.path.splitext(icon_name)
    if not icon_ext:
        icon_ext = '.icns'
    icon_name = icon_root + icon_ext
    return os.path.join(app_path, 'Contents', 'Resources', icon_name)

I found this one in a hurry.
replace biplist

Here is a new tryout with on a virgin macOS Sonoma-Version.
I made it step by step, to see, if i can find a problem.
At the end, i have now the problem with

"module 'plistlib' has no attribute 'Data'"

When I finish my current task, I try 'plistlib' .

Take your time and worry about your important things first.

[PiCiJi]

There is no reason to programmatically read the icon name from the Info.plist. Delete the function "icon_from_app" and edit line 64:
edit line 64:
badge_icon = os.path.join(application, 'Contents', 'Resources', 'Denise.icns')
I'll change it that way later. so there shouldn't any dependancy to biplist or plistlib

Great,
this is working now.
I thank you very much for your great support on this.
