Deterministic OS X Dmg Notes.
|

|

Working OS X DMGs are created in Linux by combining a recent clang,
|
||||
the Apple's binutils (ld, ar, etc), and DMG authoring tools.

Apple uses clang extensively for development and has upstreamed the necessary
|

functionality so that a vanilla clang can take advantage. It supports the use
|

of -F, -target, -mmacosx-version-min, and --sysroot, which are all necessary
|

when building for OS X. A pre-compiled version of 3.2 is used because it was not

available in the Precise repositories at the time this work was started. In the

future, it can be switched to use system packages instead.

Apple's version of binutils (called cctools) contains lots of functionality
|
||||
missing in the FSF's binutils. In addition to extra linker options for
|
||||
frameworks and sysroots, several other tools are needed as well such as
|
||||
install_name_tool, lipo, and nmedit. These do not build under linux, so they
|
||||
have been patched to do so. The work here was used as a starting point:

from Apple: cctools, dyld, and ld64.

genisoimage is used to create the initial DMG. It is not deterministic as-is,

No effort was made to fix this cleanly, so it likely leaks memory badly. But

it's only used for a single invocation, so that's no real concern.

genisoimage cannot compress DMGs, so afterwards, the 'dmg' tool from the

tool and its maintainer has seemingly abandoned the project. It has been forked
