     1 Please follow the instructions  in INSTALL.UNIX to install FreeType on
       
     2 Mac OS X.
       
     3 
       
     4 Currently FreeType2 functions based on some deprecated Carbon APIs
       
     5 return FT_Err_Unimplemented_Feature always, even if FreeType2 is
       
     6 configured and built on the system that deprecated Carbon APIs are
       
     7 available. To enable deprecated FreeType2 functions as far as possible,
       
     8 replace src/base/ftmac.c by builds/mac/ftmac.c.

    10 Starting with Mac OS X 10.5, gcc defaults the deployment target
       
    11 to 10.5. In previous versions of Mac OS X, this defaulted to 10.1.
       
    12 If you want your built binaries to run only on 10.5, this change
       
    13 does not concern you.  If you want them to also run on older versions
       
    14 of Mac OS X, then you must either set the MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET
       
    15 environment variable or pass -mmacosx-version-min to gcc. You should
       
    16 specify the oldest version of Mac OS you want the code to run on.
       
    17 For example, if you use Bourne shell:
       
    18 
       
    19 	export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.2
       
    20 
       
    21 or, if you use C shell:
       
    22 
       
    23 	setenv MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET 10.2
       
    24 
       
    25 Alternatively, you could pass "-mmacosx-version-min=10.2" to gcc.
       
    26 
       
    27 Here the number 10.2 is the lowest version that the built binaries
       
    28 can run on. In the cases in above, the built binaries will run on
       
    29 Mac OS X 10.2 and later, but _not_ earlier. If you want to run on
       
    30 earlier, you have to set lower version, e.g. 10.0.
