I have browsed the forum in the past and recently registered to contribute to the Bitcoin project. I wanted to discuss the homebrew formula for Bitcoin with other mac users and inform them of a my recent patches. Unfortunately, I can not post on the development forum due to the newb rules.

A brief introduction to why I joined: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=15672.msg255767#msg255767

The post I wish to contribute to: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=3958.0

Thank you.

Hi,

I'm fairly new to Bitcoin. I've been using it for a few weeks and have used the forum to answer some of my questions in the past. I registered today, because I wanted to let those interested in the Bitcoin OS X homebrew formula (http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=3958.0) know that I submitted a patch to melek's previous formula. Hopefully, this attempt will be merged into homebrew, so that in the future Mac users can very easily get the headless client installed:

Code:
      $ brew install https://github.com/adamv/homebrew-alt/raw/master/versions/berkeley-db4.rb --without-java
      $ brew install boost
      $ brew install --ignore-dependencies bitcoind

The proposed patch does not link the install due to the dependency issue, but this can be resolved by using an optional flag:

Code:
      $ brew install --ignore-dependencies --no-keg-only bitcoind

The formula and pull request can be found here: https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/pull/6110
