Mac OS X installation instructions

Binary package

Spek for Mac OS X is available in the download section. Download and open the DMG package, then drag the Spek icon to Applications.

Spek requires OS X 10.5 or 10.6 and an Intel-based Mac.

Building from the tarball

The official way to build Spek on OS X is using jhbuild. Just follow instructions from dist/osx/README.

Alternatively, Spek can be built using packages from MacPorts. After installing MacPorts get these dependencies:

$ sudo port install intltool
$ sudo port install pango-devel +no_x11 +quartz
$ sudo port install gtk2 +no_x11 +quartz
$ sudo port install ffmpeg +no_x11 +no_nonfree
$ sudo port install ige-mac-integration

Then download the source code tarball and run these commands from terminal:

$ tar -xjvf spek-0.x.tar.bz2
$ cd spek-0.x
$ ./configure
$ make

To start Spek, run:

$ src/spek
