Compiling GiBUU on Mac OS X (Darwin)

GiBUU on Mac is supported since version 1.2.1 (or r2736 on trunk). In addition to the usual requirements of GiBUU (like a decent Fortran compiler), there are some minor caveats specific to Mac OS X:

• There are various Fortran compilers available for Mac OS X, e.g. ifort, gfortran and g95. All three of these have been tested on Mac OS X 10.5.6. gfortran binaries for Mac OS can be found at ​http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranBinaries#MacOS.

• You need the GNU version of the 'find' tool, since the Mac version has a slightly different syntax and is not compatible with our build process. The GNU findutils can be obtained e.g. via ​MacPorts or directly from the ​GNU website. The GNU find binary should be called 'gfind'.

• Static linking is not supported on OS X, cf. the official ​statement by Apple.
