Important! Set up a Darwin cross compiler, so that you can compile native binaries that work on OS X, but without the hassle of needing to download the proprietary XCode SDK.

build problems…

So it turns out that the previous build is not known to succeed compiling under a 64-bit compiler. Well, that kind of makes sense, though it is not fully correct form as we are building a cross compiler.
Unfortunately, it turns out I have the latest odcctools, which means that odcctools does not support x86_64. But it does support i386. So I guess I have to go with that.
Er… maybe I really do need to do the whole Darwin virtual machine thing.
Okay, the OpenDarwin project it originated from was shut down. So yes, that’s true. PureDarwin instead.

man page says Darwin and OS X General Commands Manual.
20161102/DuckDuckGo create dmg on linux
Ha! You can create a dmg
with ease on GNU/Linux:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/foo.dmg bs=1M count=64
mkfs.hfsplus -v ThisIsFoo /tmp/foo.dmg
You can also use genisoimage
.
Also check out this utility. You can create compressed dmg
images
with it, albeit with caveats.

If only there were more recent versions of similar software available.
If not on your favorite cross platform of choice, you can also create a dmg natively on OS X using the Disk Utility.
hdiutil
! That’s it! That’s how to create dmg images on OS X via
the command line! Okay, now time to see if it is available in Darwin.
If it is, we’re in good news.

? And what about the reverse?

Wow, this is really interesting. Active thread, waiting to make an advance at every possible opportunity. This is especially useful when combined with Electron to be able to package apps for every possible modern web-enabled platform. Finally, the platform problem would have been solved, but it certainly took quite a bit of years.

There’s a node.js
version of the library too, but it is not as
complete as the Python and Perl versions. There’s certainly no
shortage of library rewrites available in these modern scripting
languages, it seems. Hah, the pundits of these languages would tell
me it is because they are so easy to program in, that you can write
new software that much faster in the scripting languages than the
traditional languages.
