Hi everyone,

I'm trying to compile VLC 2.0.1 from source on Mac OS X 10.6.8 and Xcode 3.2.6. I followed the instructions on the OSXCompile wiki page and get the error that "Sparkle framework is required and was not found in" when I do ./configure.

This is the error message:

Code: Select all

checking kai.h usability... no
checking kai.h presence... no
checking for kai.h... no
configure: WARNING: The skins2 module depends on the Qt4 interface, Qt4 is not built so skins2 is disabled.
configure: error: Sparkle framework is required and was not found in

However, Sparkle framework is there:

Code: Select all

vlc$ ls contrib/x86_64-apple-darwin10/Sparkle.framework/
Headers   Resources Sparkle   Versions

I also added it to extras/ just in case:

Code: Select all

vlc$ ls extras/contrib/hosts/x86_64-apple-darwin10/Sparkle/Sparkle.framework/
Headers   Resources Sparkle   Versions

This is my configure command:

Code: Select all

./configure --enable-macosx --disable-mad --disable-a52 --disable-lua --disable-swscale --disable-postproc

What can I be doing wrong?

Add "--build=x86_64-apple-darwin10 --host=x86_64-apple-darwin10" to the configure line.

I'm able to compile VLC now with the added configure options -- thank you!
