Sort of. I just read a thread on MacSlash that got me to drop a note to SourceGear, makers of SourceOffsite (SOS). My company has a SOS server so I asked SourceGear if they had a Mac client. Turns out that they make their Unix client source available (though not open source) so users can compile versions for their specific platforms. A user has done so for OS X. It runs under X11 and is as fully featured (as far as I can tell) as the Windows client I use on my Windows laptop at work.
I’ve uploaded the client to FM and you can get it by clicking on this link: ACunning_sos.tar.gz, unofficial OS X client for SourceOffSite.
They are also coming out with a native OS X client in the next release of SOS (version 4.1, I believe) coming out this fall. Good stuff. You can find more information on their boards.

Hi. I talked to someone at SourceGear about this, too — I build a 4.0 client and it seems to be working fine. Their official release of the Mac client (from what I was told) isn’t actually going to be a native OS X app — basically just an officially support version of the same source — i.e. GTK+ running under an X server. I suspect true Mac diehards will be a bit disappointed because the UI is nowhere near what Mac users expect.

Any secret to getting the client you compiled to work? I have X11 running on OS 10.3.4 and can’t get the sos to launch.

make sure your DISPLAY environment variable is set. It’s best to start it from the xterm that launches with X11. “cd” to the directory that has sos and start it with “./sos”

Nachoman, thanks for the help. I get the following error when trying that:
dyld: ./sos can’t open library: /sw/lib/libgtk-1.2.0.dylib (No such file or dir
ectory, errno = 2)
Trace/BPT trap
Do I need to get GTK?

OK, got fink and installing GTK, crossing my fingers.

the answer is yes.

One last question, fink’s gtk depends on xfree86 which conflicts with Apple’s X11, and it wants it removed before it will install xfree86. Should I remove Apple’s X11?
August 5th, 2004 at 8:20 pm
No you shouldn’t need to… look at the Fink site… they have instructions on which package to install. (system-xfree86 or something). Be sure to install the X11 SDK from Apple. You can find it on the X11 download page on Apple.com. On Panther it comes installed by default, I believe.

Hi,
I’m trying to get this working, but I ran into the same problem david ran into where it’s looking for the dylib file. I did install gtk+ (and glib) though. Could I have put it in the wrong place? (I took default settings)
Thanks,
Tony
