I'm trying to build this on Mojave. I had first tried the .dmg download but that executable pegged the CPU and never opened. So, I'm attempting to build from source to see if I can get a working setup.
I run into problems at the qmake step. I'm not sure where to go next. I suspect I may have an issue with multiple versions of qt but I really am just guessing. I have pasted the output from the qmake command below. Any suggestions on how to get a working version on mac would be greatly appreciated. thanks, Dave
sudo /opt/local/libexec/qt4/bin/qmake -spec macx-g++

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
It should be perfectly possible to build using XCode but those instructions are old and I notice it gave you a Qt4 build whereas only Qt5 is likely to work well when building.
I have QTCreator building the dream-2.2 branch on Mohave.
I also have an experimental brew tap for dream.
Try:
brew tap jcable/dream
brew install dream

Hi all,
I'm trying to build this on Mojave. I had first tried the .dmg download but that executable pegged the CPU and never opened. So, I'm attempting to build from source to see if I can get a working setup.
Is the method described at the following link valid? https://drm.sourceforge.io/wiki/index.php/Building_on_Mac_OSX_with_MacPorts_and_Xcode

I should have mentioned that the 2.1.1 dmg file does run. I guess I will just stick with this version for the time being.
Hi Dave, sorry for the slow response. I'd go with https://drm.sourceforge.io/wiki/index.php/Building_on_Mac_OSX.
