Seed on Mac OS X

Seed on Mac OS X — How to compile Seed on Apple's Mac OS X

Installation Instructions

  • Install MacPorts 1.8.1.

  • Add your MacPorts binaries and libraries folders to your path:

    $ export PATH=/opt/local/bin:$PATH

    $ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/local/lib

    Note: You may have installed MacPorts somewhere other than /opt/local. Keep that in mind.

  • Check out the Seed MacPorts repository:

    $ cd /opt

    $ sudo mkdir hortont-ports

    $ sudo chown [your username] hortont-ports

    $ git clone http://hortont.com/hortont-ports.git

    Then, edit the file /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf, adding the line:

    file:///opt/hortont-ports

    before the line (at the bottom of the file) that reads:

    rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/ports/ [default]

  • Then, upgrade your currently installed ports (important!), then install seed:

    $ sudo port sync

    $ sudo port upgrade outdated

    $ sudo port install seed
