I just curious if anyone has played with it on the beta testing of Mountain Lion, just wondering if the gatekeeper will be a problem?

I've tried playing with it, but haven't gotten it to compile yet.  Spent all of 15 minutes goofing with it.  Might try tomorrow.

Mountain Lion will be officially released tomorrow.  Bump.

The GM has been out for a while.  Has anybody tried running bitcoin-qt on OSX 10.8?  Is it working okay?  Any issues?

I was planning on making the leap tomorrow but refuse to upgrade unless my beloved Bitcoin is working without problems.   Grin

I finally got 10.8 installed here and yes I can confirm that things seem to be working fine with Bitcoin-qt.

Thanks for all your replies.

I have been trying to compile the source from the main bitcoin tree and ran into a problem with the qt4-mac macport not being Mountain Lion ready yet.
It's not terrible to fix it so that it will build, but it blocks the ability to build bitcoin-qt from scratch on 10.8

I found the info necessary to compile qt4-mac here: https://trac.macports.org/ticket/35313

Then in the bitcoin code I had to make one change to src/qt/qtipcserver.cpp so that

+static void ipcThread(void* pArg){}
+static void ipcThread2(void* pArg){}

where defined as empty functions.

Then once I had all the ports installed the bitcoin-qt cllient would build and run.
