macOS build fails (something about spdlog)

[strogonoff]

Thanks for this exciting bit of software! Can’t wait to try it.

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:87 (find_package):
  By not providing "Findspdlog.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
  asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "spdlog", but
  CMake did not find one.

  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "spdlog" with any
  of the following names:

    spdlogConfig.cmake
    spdlog-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "spdlog" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "spdlog_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If "spdlog"
  provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been
  installed.

Welcome, hope you're successful with the build.

Do you have brew installed? This is part of the build script:

brew install sdl2 spdlog catch2

Maybe try running this manually and see if there are any errors.

[strogonoff]

Ah I see. I use Macports instead of Homebrew…

[MStraeten]

also fine with macports:
for macports:
sudo port install libsdl2 spdlog catch2
if exiv2 is already installed by macports (it's 0.27.6 currently) it needs to be deactivated while building: sudo port deactivate exiv2
can be activated afterwards sudo port activate exiv2
