Compiling on Mac failing

Post by Brutha »

Hi All,

I'm trying to compile the most recent master of Freecad on Mac using the instructions Vectronic kindly provided here: https://vectronic.io/posts/building-fre ... ing-conda/.

It was previously working; I had a 0.19 version working nicely. But since I upgraded to latest version of Mojave, there are some glitches (missing workbench selection bar, no grid). So, I thought I would try running the build again to see if that helped.

Basically, I run from the "conda build ./recipe -m ./.ci_support/osx_python3.7.yaml" step; it pulls in updates from https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD, but fails when it starts to build.

Here's the info in the console at the point it stops:

Code: Select all

CMake Error at /Users/brutha/miniconda3/conda-bld/freecad_1565776784984/_build_env/share/cmake-3.15/Modules/CMakeTestCCompiler.cmake:60 (message):

  is not able to compile a simple test program.

  It fails with the following output:

Can anyone suggest a way forward? I really don't have any idea what to try!

Re: Compiling on Mac failing

Hello,

I think I have the same issue. I get the same failure.
I trying to compile Freecad the first time, so I'm not sure, what is the problem.
Here some information.
Build Freecad Version 0.18.4
OS X: Catalina 10.15.2
Python Version 3.7.3
Conda latest version.
I have following error message, before it will stop the build of Freecad:

Code: Select all

If you could forward me the link to the conda thread would also be fine.

Thank you for your support.

You seem to have a different problem.

If you see the error message produced by the previous poster it indicates missing libraries. In this case, it shows missing libSystem.so or something like that.

I don't have experience compiling on Mac; I can only recommend to follow Compile_on_MacOS, but this may be outdated. If you are using Conda, make sure you have all dependencies.

I found the issue.
Always when I would recompile FreeCAD I need to delete the MaxOSX10.12.sdk
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk/MacOSX10.12.sdk

Good find. Would you mind adding it to the wiki?
