OSX successful build - but questions

 

I think the info below describes my ‘most up-to-date’ OS X build. Some
of the config parameters were changed by the CMakeCache.txt script and I
don’t know if they are appropriate (the USE_WX_GRAPHICS_CONTEXT=OFF in
particular.

If anyone knows better, please post.

Application: kicad
Version: (2015-01-10 BZR 5363)-product Debug build
wxWidgets: Version 3.0.2 (debug,UTF-8,compiler with C++ ABI 1002,GCC
4.2.1,STL containers,compatible with 2.8)
Platform: Mac OS X (Darwin 14.0.0 x86_64), 64 bit, Little endian, wxMac
Boost version: 1.57.0
         USE_WX_GRAPHICS_CONTEXT=OFF
         USE_WX_OVERLAY=ON
         KICAD_SCRIPTING=ON
         KICAD_SCRIPTING_MODULES=ON
         KICAD_SCRIPTING_WXPYTHON=ON
         USE_FP_LIB_TABLE=HARD_CODED_ON
         BUILD_GITHUB_PLUGIN=ON

The above information came from kicad->Help->Copy Version Information,
but this information is copied to the clipboard only after the little
dialog box is closed. If you can see the dialog box, then the
information on the clipboard is stale. Maybe this should be changed -
just to align expectations.

wxPython 3.0.2.0 was prebuilt, boost 1.57.0 was prebuilt, and avhttp was
built (when?)

Under Help, the KiCad Manual is not available nor is the Getting Started
in KiCad.

When I click on the eeSchema icon, I get the half finished schematic I
have been working on - at least these things didn’t go away. The part
libraries are not new.

Perhaps there is something else I can do to get the help files active
and better component descriptions available?

There was something about getting these from the repos, but no actual
addresses.

There are a lot of warnings when I compile - mostly about overlaid
template and incompatible types, differing argument counts on function
def and call.

A representative bunch are shown below.
