$NetBSD: README.macOS,v 1.8 2022/04/09 17:23:12 schmonz Exp $

|
|
Please read the general README file as well.
|
|
|
|
Binary packages are available for macOS arm64 and x86_64, provided by
|
|
Joyent. More info: <http://pkgsrc.joyent.com/install-on-osx/>
|
|
|
|
If these don't suffice for your needs, you'll want to build your own.
|
|
First, install either the full Xcode environment (if that's something
|
|
you want to have) or else just its Command Line Tools. For the latter:
|
|
|
|
$ xcode-select --install
|
|
|
|
Next, if you haven't already done so, fetch and extract pkgsrc:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -O https://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/current/pkgsrc.tar.gz
|
|
$ tar -zxf pkgsrc.tar.gz && rm pkgsrc.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
Now you're ready to bootstrap as described in README.
|
|
|
|
Once bootstrapped, install `devel/scmcvs` so you can update pkgsrc via
|
|
anonymous CVS. Alternatively, swap out your CVS checkout for a clone
|
|
from this git mirror: <https://github.com/NetBSD/pkgsrc/>
|
|
|
|
For a local X11 display server, install `x11/modular-xorg-xquartz`.
|
|
|
|
For any particular package that doesn't build, macOS fixes are often in
|
|
MacPorts or Homebrew waiting to be borrowed.
|
|
|
|
Patches to support older systems will generally get merged, provided
|
|
they don't break newer systems and aren't too much trouble to maintain.
|
|
Tigerbrew is a good place to look for such fixes.
|
|
|
|
Occasionally, after updating to a freshly released macOS version, you'll
|
|
see "No suitable Xcode SDK or Command Line Tools installed." This
|
|
usually means a pkgsrc developer needs to add another `OSX_SDK_MAP`
|
|
entry to `mk/platform/Darwin.mk`.
