Success!
first of all I'd like to thank you Nick & Jason for the hints!
Building Geany natively under OSX with GTK+ (without X11) sounded fine to me..so I started again from scratch and deleted my previous attempts & macports.
Here's what I did:
- installed GTK+ from http://www.gtk-osx.org/
- downloaded the latest Geany SVN Version again
- ran ./autogen.sh in Terminal again and got the following error:
....
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for GTK... configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-2.0 >= 2.8.0) were not met:
No package 'gtk+-2.0' found
...
- fired up Finder to search for gtk, found it under <myuser>/gtk
- added the path in Terminal by typing:
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=<myuser>/gtk/inst/lib/pkgconfig/
- checked it with: pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0
Output: 2.16.2
-so there we are!
-then I ran configure, make and sudo make install again
-->Success! Geany executable is under /usr/local/bin/geany and runs fine now!
Maybe this little "Howto" can push the other OS X users (are there any? ;) ) into the right direction...
Thanks again and have a nice day!

When I built Geany on OS X last year, I was using the then-beta version of http://www.gtk-osx.org/ which provides native GTK+. (No need for X11, etc.) So then again, I don't have any experience building Geany for OSX/X11.On 09/30/2009 04:25 AM, Nick Treleaven wrote:

core files, but the error keeps poping up...*sigh*
First, I don't really know anything about OSX, so any input from
someone with it would be helpful.
RANDR seems to me to be referring to libXrandr.so[.VERSION] (or
similar), which is a shared library that my Fedora Linux GTK library is
linked to. So I guess that the GTK library you downloaded(?) depends on
an X library file that isn't on your system.
To confirm this, if you have ldd, you can run:
ldd /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0
Where that path is the path to the GTK shared library. Paste the output
here. On my system I get:
...
libXrandr.so.2 => /usr/lib/libXrandr.so.2 (0x00a11000)
...
If I'm right, you would either need to download the Xrandr
module or download/build a GTK library that doesn't depend on it (not
sure if the latter is possible for X backend).
It could be that your X library is too old, and that's why the module
is missing.

Nick
