Compiling KiCad on Fedora
=========================

Fedora 14
---------
First we need to install all the needed tools and libraries with yum. First
become root with su.
Then invoke yum:
yum install gcc gcc-c++ bzr cmake doxygen wxGTK-devel make
Create somewhere on your drive a kicad directory.
Then clone the bzr repository:
bzr checkout lp:kicad testing
then cd into the build directory
invoke cmake to generate the makefiles
cmake ../testing
If everything went well you should be able to build kicad with make.
make

Building a universal monolib wxWidgets 2.9 with the following parameters:
./configure --enable-unicode=yes --enable-shared=no --enable-monolithic --with-opengl \
--enable-universal_binary --enable-aui --enable-debug --with-osx_cocoa \

If you dont need the debugging symbols then you can remove the --enable-debug parameter.
Then you should a message like this:
Configured wxWidgets 2.9.2 for `i686-apple-darwin10.4.0'
Which GUI toolkit should wxWidgets use? osx_cocoa
Should wxWidgets be compiled into single library? yes
Should wxWidgets be linked as a shared library? no
Should wxWidgets support Unicode? yes (using UTF-8)
What level of wxWidgets compatibility should be enabled?
wxWidgets 2.6 no
wxWidgets 2.8 yes
Which libraries should wxWidgets use?
STL no
jpeg builtin
png builtin
regex builtin
tiff builtin
zlib sys
expat builtin
libmspack no
sdl no
If you don't need the debugging symbols then you can remove the --enable-debug parameter.

You get this error because the QuickTime 10.6 framework is not build with 64bit support. This not a real issue for KiCad because we don't use it anyway.
