Progress - clear advice appreciated

macx:BOOSTINCLUDEDIR = $${BOOSTROOT}/usr/local/include/boost-1_38 was  
added to localconfig.pri resulting in a qmake output as follows:

Silly-iMac:igotu2gpx-0.2 Will$ qmake

I've still not been able to find chrpath and am unsure what to do next  
as there's no makefile after te above step. I could send the output  
from qmake -d if that would help.

You received this bug notification because you are a member of
MobileAction i-gotU USB GPS travel logger Mac/Linux support developers,
which is the registrant for igotu2gpx.

Status in MobileAction i-gotU USB GPS travel logger Mac/Linux support: Incomplete

Bug description:
Compiling on Mac OS X does not work, but it should theoretically. 

After a long break at programming, I'm trying to work out how to make use of the work done for the i-gotU. If someone could fill in any gaps I'd appreciate it.... I've not done dev on the Mac before but am familiar with Solaris/UNIX/C.

Mac 10.5.6, Intel iMac, Xcode 3.1.2 tools installed, boost 1.38.0 installed (std ./configure used - resulted in /usr/local install), Qt4.5.0 installed

The install file states:

To compile igotu2gpx, you need:
- qt4
- boost
- boost-program-options
- libusb
- chrpath (optional, makes it possible to run the program without installation)

So I have a compiler, I have qt4 and boost (which seems to include program-options). 

- libusb most recent version does not work on Mac so I instead used 0.1.12which installed in /usr/local/lib
- chrpath could not find this but as it's optional this should be okay??

So now what.. I tried qmake in igotu directory (prompt returns with no message) followed by make which returns with make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

I' not sure if Qt Creator can/should be used or if the command line approach should work. I've not made any changes to include/path and wonder this would help and if so how should it be done?

Plenty of questions and I appreciate any feedback/pointers to tutorials.
