Are there detailed instructions for building this on MacOS?

[Mantene]

I have tried and tried to build this on a Mac. I am a home-brew user, but apparently the only way to get a working version of code blocks is with macports, so I spun up an old Mac, wiped it and made it my development server. I got code blocks working. I got all of the dependencies installed as far as I can tell - FFmpeg, OpenAL, etc. Yet I keep hitting roadblocks when I run make.

It all seems to come to this every single time:

devuser@Documents/source/sview> make

ld: library 'avutil' not found

clang++: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

make: *** [libStShared.dylib] Error 1

I know FFMPEG is installed and libavcodec, libavdevice, libavfilter, libavformat, and libavutil should all be where it can find them. What am I missing? What can I do?

Either you provide variables like FFMPEG_ROOT to Makefile with custom location of FFmpeg and other libraries, or consider they to be installed global-wise in default location, available to building tools.

The automatic build on GitHub Actions relies on homebrew - see continuousIntegration/build_sview_osx.sh and .github/workflows/build_macos_12.yml. But I don't know if produced application is actually usable.
