[Github-comments] Re: [geany/geany-osx] Build failure on macOS: `error: conflicting types for 'scandir'; have 'int(const char *, struct dirent ***, int (*)(const struct dirent *), int (*)(const struct dirent **, const struct dirent **))'` (Issue #56)

@barracuda156 What exactly are you doing - are you trying to build Geany itself or something within Geany? The official instructions for building Geany are here:

https://github.com/geany/geany-osx/blob/master/README.md

Geany itself from the MacPorts portfile.

The error is caused by a mismatching declaration in dirent header. MacOS had a different one prior to 10.8.
