Notes for rebuilding Kivy OSX package / Python 2.7

gistfile1.txt

Kivy OSX - Portable package

Librairies:
- pygame
- gstreamer (avec tous les plugins)
- pygst (gst-python)
- docutils

Global way to work:
- clean your env, everywhere (brew, python etc.)
- `python` should be the system python 2.7
- brew install sdl sdl_ttf sdl_image sdl_mixer smpeg portmidi mercurial
- brew install gstreamer gst-plugins-good gst-plugins-bad gst-plugins-ugly
(if one fail (bad or ugly), just somewhere, edit the formula (brew edit gst-plugins-bad), install deps by hand except the one that fail. then install the original formula with: brew install --ignore-dependencies gst-plugins-bad. (i don't remember if it's the bad or ugly.))
- brew install gst-ffmpeg
- brew install gst-python
- brew install pip
- sudo pip install docutils
- install pygame
- get kivy master into ~/code/kivy

TEST.

- python -c 'import pygst; pygst.require("0.10"); import gst'
if one plugin fail to import 'libgstfaad', just remove it. i didn't been able to get it work.
- download the portable-deps-osx.zip, unzip

create a build.sh script at the same level of portable-deps-osx directory (not inside) with:

    rm portable-deps-osx.zip
    pushd .
    cd portable-deps-osx/Kivy.app/Contents/Resources
    python build_lib_directory.py
    popd
    zip -r9 portable-deps-osx.zip portable-deps-osx
    pushd ~/code/kivy
    make distclean
    git clean -dxf
    python setup.py build_portable --deps ~/Downloads/deps/portable-deps-osx.zip
    umount /Volumes/Kivy
    open Kivy.dmg
    sleep 10
    rm -rf /Applications/Kivy.app
    cp -a /Volumes/Kivy/Kivy.app /Applications
    umount /Volumes/Kivy

--> the /Application/Kivy.app shoudl be at the latest version.

To test, ensure your have a clean env. What i did was:

Clean the env:
  cd /usr/local
  unset PYTHONPATH
  mv lib lib.old; mv bin bin.old; mv /usr/local/Cellar/gstreamer/0.10.36/libexec/gstreamer-0.10{,.old}

Test:
  /Applications/Kivy.app/Contents/Resources/script

And try:
  import pygame
  pygame.__file__
  pygame.image.get_extended() # should return 1
  import pygst
  pygst.__file__
  pygst.require('0.10')
  import gst
  # some eroors, but it should be ok.
  import docutils
  docutils.__file__

Then... just use directly the script to execute few examples of Kivy.

To restore the env:
  cd /usr/local
  mv lib.old lib; mv bin.old bin; mv /usr/local/Cellar/gstreamer/0.10.36/libexec/gstreamer-0.10{.old,}




Attempted methods:

- Uninstall XQuartz (to be sure)
launchctl unload /Library/LaunchAgents/org.macosforge.xquartz.startx.plist
sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macosforge.xquartz.privileged_startx.plist
sudo rm -rf /opt/X11* /Library/Launch*/org.macosforge.xquartz.* /Applications/Utilities/XQuartz.app /etc/*paths.d/*XQuartz
sudo pkgutil --forget org.macosforge.xquartz.pkg

- Install libs
sudo easy_install-2.7 pip
sudo pip --upgrade numpy
brew install sdl sdl_ttf sdl_image sdl_mixer smpeg portmidi

- Install gst-plugins-base, gst-plugins-good, gst-plugins-ugly with --ignore-dependencies, just edit the formula, install reps by hands, just avoid pang and gtk+

Manual installation of gst-python-0.10.22:
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/libxml2/2.8.0/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/local/Cellar/libffi/3.0.11/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/Cellar/pygobject/2.28.6/lib/pkgconfig/ ./configure

For gst-plugins-ugly: i've removed: libcdio
