hi guys i am new to all this i use a mac i am looking to try and use Kexi but i cant get it to work any help ?

Moved to the Kexi forum.
I note that Krita (another application in the Calligra suite) does not have Mac OS X binaries available for installation at the moment, so I suspect you may need to build it yourself.

Kexi is not tested on Mac. Mac users may need to contact/find maintainers for this platform to get satisfactory quality.

PS: please use more meaningful subjects for questions (changed that for you this time)...

I will try to build Kexi in Mac OS X - Lion. (I just got a new MacbookPro Retina - just the base model).

What is needed to build Kexi in Mac OS X, dependencies / libraries?

Is this updated for Kexi 2.4.1?

I downloaded Qt 4.7.x for Mac OS X already (I have to check the exact version in the other laptop (slow laptop)).

Edit: some of the Mac OS frameworks / library can be found here (e.g. SQLite 3.7.11, Postgres, etc.)

UnixImageIO framework v1.4.0 [2.2 MiB] (Snow Leopard & Lion) - This includes libpng.

Now, it just how to use these things to compile Calligra.

Is this compulsory (below), supposing we just download Calligra source code?

mkdir -p $HOME/kde4/build/calligra
mkdir -p $HOME/kde4/inst
cd $HOME/kde4/build/calligra
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/kde4/inst $HOME/kde4/src/calligra -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo

#########
Do I need to get kde source code aside from calligra?

One of the problems in my git (Mac OS X) is how to configure to get (~./gitconfig)

http://community.kde.org/Calligra/Building

How do I do this inorder to have gitconfig?

I am always use git in github.

Anything like this:

martin@merkaba:~/KDE/Calligra/calligra> git remote -v
origin git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-kde/kde-std/calligra.git (fetch)
origin git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-kde/kde-std/calligra.git (push)
martin@merkaba:~/KDE/Calligra/calligra> git log | head -6

from this posting.
http://lists.debian.org/debian-kde/2012 ... 00016.html

I want something like the above but from original repository.

Like this:

git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-kde/kde-std/calligra.git

This is in Windows
http://community.kde.org/Calligra/Build ... on_Windows

This is the emerge.
git clone git://anongit.kde.org/emerge.git

I like to know the exact address of the calligra.git?

Is this the right git for Calligra including the kde framework (i.e. core)?

git clone git://anongit.kde.org/calligra
