[Gate-users] Install GATE in Mac os Mavericks

[pmcorreia at ua.pt]

Dear all

Is this related with the fact that I cannot have any OpenGL visualizer in Gate installed in OS X 10.9?

When I type
/vis/open OGLS

I get

ERROR: G4VisCommandSceneHandlerCreate::SetNewValue: could not find fallback graphics system.
ERROR: G4VisCommandViewerCreate::SetNewValue: no scene handlers.
  Create a scene handler with "/vis/sceneHandler/create"

And when I start Gate with "Gate --qt" I have the crash problem described by Marc.

Regards, Pedro

Oh, thanks a lot for pointing this out. I forgot about it (and I don't
use 10.9 myself, so I didn't spot the problem).

I can definitely patch it, but given that the port is now fetching the
latest version from git, it would make more sense to fix the Gate
sources directly and I would simply fetch a newer properly working
commit.

David, may I please ask to apply the above mentioned Jérôme's patch?

(If for whatever reason the sources cannot be updated in a few days, I
will add the patch to the repository.)
