If you did want to put MacPorts aside and try HomeBrew just for a minute, and only to install SDL: Git submodule update # seemed to do nothing (?) Git submodule update вЂ“init # their wiki instructed to do this (?) Sudo port install cmake # because the build process needs cmake If you would rather build PPSSPP from source yourself, try these steps (using MacPorts):

Why is PPSSPP notВ statically linked to its dependencies? Why does it not save user data in the right place (it will save your games in a hidden folder, very non-Mac like: youвЂ™ll have to open up вЂњ/Users/your_name/.config/PPSSPP/вЂќ to find your save files, the ini files where you enter per-game cheats, etc.)? Do you get a вЂњSegmentation fault: 11вЂќ with a thread that crashes in the pthread library, while the main thread is trying to call SDL_SetVideoMode() from its own SDL_Main()? Then you probably aliasedВ libSDL-1.2.0.dylib correctly, but messed up the others. Sudo ln /opt/local/lib/libSDLmain.a /usr/local/lib/libSDLmain.aДo you get an OS X CrashWrangler bug report dialog, saying it crashed because it couldnвЂ™t findВ вЂњ/usr/local/lib/libSDL-1.2.0.dylibвЂќ? You might have not created the aliases correctly in /usr/local/lib. Sudo ln /opt/local/lib/libSDL.dylib /usr/local/lib/libSDL.dylib Sudo ln /opt/local/lib/libSDL.a /usr/local/lib/libSDL.a Sudo ln /opt/local/lib/libSDL-1.2.0.dylib /usr/local/lib/libSDL-1.2.0.dylib If you run the following commands, you can correctly set up the LibSDL dependency.

So this post is about how to get PPSSPP working if you are a MacPorts user.ДЇirst, I assume youвЂ™ve gotten XCode from the App Store, opened it to download the XCode command line tools, and then installed MacPorts. The two are mutually exclusive, and would interfere with each other if you were to try using them together. There are directions for installing SDL if you use Homebrew as your package manager. Things have come a long way.Д«ut you still have to download and install a dependency first: the SDL runtime (Simple DirectMedia Layer), because the developer follows the Linux philosophy of no statically linked libraries (вЂњmake it the userвЂ™s problem to try to recreate the exact dynamic library setup that the developer used through trial-and-error!вЂќ). We no longer have to run the Windows version under a Wine wrapper.

At least the main site now hosts compiled binaries for OS X, which is an improvement from not too long agoВ when the only binaries available were on a third party build site.

This fantastic open-source emulator of PSP runs on basically everything, but itвЂ™sВ a littleВ harder to get working on Mac OS X.
