Now if I try to run Lazarus I got the following Error

Ahh... you need to install X. IIRC it is located somewhere on your OSX cd/dvd

Hello-

I managed to install Lazarous on OSX 10.5, but we need to update the web page describing the process described here:
  http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Installing_Lazarus_on_MacOS_X
As noted, you need to install X11 from your Leopard DVD.

However, at the moment, FINK does not yet support OSX 10.5, so you will not be able to get to the apt-get stage.

I worked around this by installing MacPorts instead of FINK.
  http://www.macports.org/
You can then use macports to install the necessary libraries. The next trick is that MacPorts installs libraries to a different folder than FINK, and Lazarus has the directories for the libraries hard coded. Therefore, I had to copy the appropriate libraries from the MacPorts library folder to the path expected by Lazarus.

At this point, Lazarus runs nicely...

I am not very familiar with OSX, so I had help from a friend. Therefore, I can not recall the precise folders and other details. I will try to see if he can help update the install wiki.

Hi
I have a PowerPC G4 powerbook here now, with OSX 10.5 (Leopard)
I have downloaded and installed the latest Lazarus snapshot today , OK
I am having trouble getting GTK installed
as fink is not able to install it
I have read the posts on this thread about getting macports to install GTK,  but I am not sure what command lines to use ( I do have mac ports installed)

alternative: how to get lazarus re compiled to use carbon interface (the whole program?)
i have seen that somewhere on this forum, but I can not find it!
(something like make clean all carbon)
thanks for the help!
Brian

update: I found this

[edit] How can I rebuild LCL or Lazarus IDE for Carbon interface via terminal?
You can use the following command in Lazarus directory:

for LCL: make lcl LCL_PLATFORM=carbon OPT="-k-framework -kcarbon"
for Lazarus IDE: make all LCL_PLATFORM=carbon OPT="-k-framework -kcarbon"

but I get errors, e.g, make: -iVSPTPSOTO: Command not found
make: -iSP: Command not found

etc etc

update: I am making progress with mac ports (Once I set the path variables for that), using the port install glib1
leaving that running....will report back later

Hi Windy,

but I get errors, e.g, make: -iVSPTPSOTO: Command not found
make: -iSP: Command not found

Have you installed Free Pascal?

[windy]

Hi
yes, I installed FPC then FPCsource then lazarus .dmg packages for the PowerPC

Macports got the glib1 installed OK
now I need to get the libgdk installed....(I had to copy to the /sw/lib/ folder) but not sure what that is called for the macport download
ahha, its called gdk-pixbuf
downloading and installing that now via macports

horray!
I managed to get it working (after copying each missing library file reported from where macports created it, to the /sw/lib/ folder
then I just had to set the environment path to the ppcppc in lazarus

hopefully this will help others out

Hi
update:
I got my project compiled
but I have run into a problem...
any Ttimers I have, give an access violation for their ontimer process in the compiler (those errors show up as the project is loaded)
i must be missing something ...
thanks!

[Tombo]

but I get errors, e.g, make: -iVSPTPSOTO: Command not found
make: -iSP: Command not found

Finally I found what you are missing:
The reason of this error is, that Free Pascal Compiler executables are not found in search path. You must add their path to the terminal profile, which is located at your home directory in ".profile" file (e.g. use command "pico ~/.profile" in terminal). At the end of file add this line:

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

, where "/usr/local/bin" is path to FPC executables. Save the result. It should work after terminal restart.

I have added it to Carbon interface FAQ  "http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Carbon_interface_FAQ"

[windy]

Thanks
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin

worked a treat from a terminal window, the make clean all now works
