First you need to get the required development tools for your machine, the first one being Xcode. You can get Xcode5 from the developer app store from Apple for free. But depending on your system you may need an earlier version. Look here for a good guide to help you decide which version you need: http://guide.macports.org/#installing.xcode
Once you download Xcode you will then need macports to install the rest of the dependencies. You can get macports from here: https://distfiles.macports.org/MacPorts/
Once again make sure you grab the correct version for your OS.
Now open up a Terminal window and enter the following to install the rest of the dependencies:
Git isn't necessarily a dependency but it is nice to have
Then enter the following to clone the CGA source
Now move to the cryptographicanomaly folder you just downloaded using:
Once there you can compile your QT wallet with the following command:
Go make yourself a sandwich because this will take a while and will take up most of your computers resources.
Once it is done you can navigate to the cryptographicanomaly folder in Finder and you should see a brand new file called Cryptographicanomaly-Qt. You can leave it there or move it to your Applications folder if you like, It doesn't really matter.
Now if you would like the cryptographicanomalyd file you can go back to Terminal (assuming you are still in the cryptographicanomaly folder/directory) and move to the src folder like so:
Once there you can enter the following to compile your cryptographicanomalyd file:
Go make another sandwich, yum. Once finished you can enter the following command to "strip" your newly compiled program. This will "strip" the extra code you don't need from the program making the size much much smaller (~14Mb instead of around 40Mb) but you don't have to.
Your new cryptographicanomalyd program will be in your cryptographicanomaly/src folder. Again you can leave it there or move it to Applications.
Thanks for the detailed explanation. I'll try it out today.
