The task of building Paparazzi on for Apple MacOS X is on going.

The current installation instructions are as follows. As the process evolves and the more people begin to use it the process will become easier and more simplified.

Installing from source

  1. Install the latest XCode http://developer.apple.com/technologies/tools/xcode.html
  2. Install MacPorts from http://www.macports.org/install.php
  3. Install GIT
    sudo port install git-core
  4. Get a local copy of the Paparazzi Portability Support source
    git clone git://github.com/paparazzi/paparazzi-portability-support.git
  5. edit /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf and above the rsync://... line add file://<local path>/paparazzi-portability-support/darwin/macports/ports/ [nosync] for example:
    file:///Users/dummyuser/projects/paparazzi/paparazzi-portability-support/darwin/macports/ports/ [nosync]
  6. Install paparazzi
    sudo port install paparazzi
    # then go and have lunch, get a coffee, get some sleep. this will probably take a long time
  7. edit /etc/profile and add export CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/local/include" (TODO: Remove the need for this)


If you want to follow the standard Paparazzi Git install then the prerequisite software can be installed by running the command

sudo port install paparazzi-tools
