OSX install

Hello:

Is there any way to get a .dmg or .pkg to install in OSX?.

I don't know how to compile files or somebody who can post for noobies.

Regards

Compiling Qt software is actually surprisingly simple, probably is on Mac OS X as well. All you need to do is download Qt (the community edition). Then you load the Otter project into Qt creator and build it. Be aware that the development environment itself is something like 500 MB.

We need maintainer for MacOS builds, due to lack of them some users believe that this platform is not supported...

A lot of developers use OSX, how come nobody in the forum can do a .dmg or pkg file for the non tech savy?.

I'd like to test and use the Otter but I need to use it in WM Ware envirnoment, for me this is not practical.

A hackintosh for testing purposes can be handy

@Fotmat C, yes, but it's kind of illegal. ;-)
