Description Matthew Flaschen 2014-02-06 20:46:08 UTC
For bug 49057, it would be useful to have a script for assembling MWV and dependencies into OS X DMG.
Comment 1 Brion Vibber 2014-02-07 19:25:02 UTC
Making a DMG is fairly easy using hdiutil on OS X, but let's not forget that OS X isn't everybody's system -- we see a lot of Linux and even Windows at hackathons.

I would recommend building ZIP archives for Windows and Linux and tossing them all on the same target USB stick. Mac-specific things might be safer in a DMG wrapper (especially if we bundle VirtualBox etc).
Comment 2 Bryan Davis 2014-07-19 19:36:45 UTC
With the advent of the cross platform ISO image, I don't think this is actually worth investing energy into. One problem that would be fundamental here is that the WMF doesn't have servers that could be used to automate OS X build steps.
