This Sub Hates Fine Art Mac OS

I have been fighting to get FCEUX installed on my iMac ever since I got it. It came with Mountain Lion and I was able to install FCEUX on Lion without issue, but Mountain Lion was a completely different story. I initially tried installing XQuartz (make sure to do this first if you have not already) and then FCEUX using homebrew as I had done before.

brew update
brew doctor
brew install fceux

You can use the table below as a general guide to the pixel dimensions needed for printing. The table will show you how many pixels are in a specific print size across various print resolutions, and will help you answer the question of, ‘How large can I print my file?’.

But got the following error:

MAC Art Galleries MAC Art Galleries is a contemporary art gallery with three locations in Jupiter & Ft. LOL – I’m in the exact opposite boat. I’ve been using Mac since the blueberry iMac days. Catalina is the absolute worst iteration of Mac OS ever. It’s worse than Windows Vista. The “it just works” days of Apple died with Steve Jobs. I’m debating leaving my iMac behind and building a photo editing PC.

After doing some research, I discovered that it was having issues finding the required X11 packages and was failing. I tried specifying

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/X11/lib/pkgconfig/ brew install fceux

But that also did not resolve the problem. I found someone else having the same issue as me on github and commented that I was having the same issue, but didn’t get back anything that worked, so I decided to go straight to source and see if I could compile and install it from the FCEUX site.

I downloaded the latest version 2.2.0 src tarball and read the “README-SDL.md”. The readme stated that it should be compiled and installed using scons, so I ran the scons command within the directory and got the same error again. So I decided to break into the SConscript file and see if I could figure out how to fix the error. I found the line that was running pkg-config on gtk+-2.0 from the error and added

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/X11/lib/pkgconfig/

to the front of the pkg-config command to see if that would work and to my surprise I got passed the error. The next error I received was that liblua could not be found. That was easy to fix by running

brew install lua

After that I ran scons again and to an even greater surprise it compiled without error. After that I was able to run scons install to install the binary and then ran fceux and it ran without error.
