== Mac OS X ==
In order to develop (or even use) Gramps on an Apple Macintosh, you must first install all of the prerequisite libraries and their headers. There are three choices for this [http://live.gnome.org/Gtk%2BOSX Gtk-OSX], [http://www.macports.org MacPorts], or [http://www.finkproject.org Fink]. Full instructions for building Gramps for each is provided here: [[Mac OS X:Build from source:Application package]], [[Mac OS X:Build from source:MacPorts]], or [[Mac OS X:Build from source:fink]].
The last only works with X11, which is no longer included in OS X but can be installed separately. MacPorts can be built with/for either X11 or OS X's native Quartz graphics backend, and Gtk-OSX is exclusively for Quartz.
