New description:

 Make Orxononx compile and run on OS X.
 If possible, create a bundle.

 = General Update for Ticket (as of May 11 2011) =

 Consult [wiki:MacOSX MacOSX] for more details (including a tutorial).

 == Achieved Goals ==
  * Trunk compatibility for Mac OS X 10.6
  * Dependency package for Mac OS X 10.6
  * Compilation
  * Execution
  * Playability
  * Tutorial

 == Prevailing Issues ==
  * Occasional crashes (eg. in conjunction with sound and LOD)
  * Sound errors: OpenAL (maybe ALUT)
  * No application bundle
  * Mac OS X 10.5 Support
  * PCH support on OS X
  * Doxygen documentation support

 = Additional Information =
 == Creating a Mac Application Bundle ==
 Most of the work is done by CPack, a co-application of CMake. The
 following three pages might help:
 [http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:Packaging_With_CPack#Using_CPack_with_CMake
 "Packaging with CPack"], [http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/BundleUtilitiesExample
 "Bundle Utilities Example"] and
 [http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:CPackPackageGenerators#Bundle_.28OSX_only.29
 "CPack Generators"]. Additionally, certain CMake files have already been
 created: {{{BundleConfig.cmake}}} and {{{PrepareDevBundle.cmake}}}. CPack
 is included at the end of the top-level {{{CMakeLists.txt}}} file.
