-====== Build X2GoClient on MacOS ======
+====== Building X2Go Client on Mac OS ======
-wiki-writing-todo (FIXME)
+===== Build/Install X2Go Client using Homebrew =====
+As X2Go Client and it's dependencies are already in Homebrew (thanks to Clemens Lang and Eugene San).
-===== Variables =====
+We assume you've already installed Homebrew.
+If not please invoke:<code>$ ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go)"</code>
+For more information regarding Homebrew head to http://brew.sh
+It is possible to install X2goClient in one command: <code>$ brew install x2goclient</code>
+===== Build X2Go Client using Mac Ports =====
+As X2Go Client is already in Mac Ports (thanks to Clemens Lang) it is possible to install all dependencies via Mac Ports.
+**Steps summarized:**
+  - Install Mac Ports on your Mac OS system
+  - Take a look at the dependency list (in a terminal shell)
+  - And install those dependencies
+  - Install dylibbundler
+  - Get X2Go Client from X2Go Git
+  - Build X2Go Client
+So, first install the X2Go Client dependencies:
+<code>
+$ port echo depof:x2goclient
+$ sudo port install depof:x2goclient
+</code>
+Then install dylibbundler:
+<code>
+$ sudo port install dylibbundler
+</code>
+Once the dependencies are installed, tweak some file permissions:
+<code>
+$ sudo chmod u+w /opt/local/lib/libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib /opt/local/lib/libssl.1.0.0.dylib
+</code>
+If you omit the file permission tweak, dylibbundler will fail to build/bundle X2Go Client.
+At last, checkout X2Go Client from Git:
+<code>
+$ git clone git://code.x2go.org/x2goclient.git
+</code>
+If you want to build a specific version of X2Go Client, select that version with ''git checkout <version>''. If you want to look around what versions are available, use ''git tag'' which will present you a list of valid version tags to use for checkout.
+In the X2Go Client source directory, simply run the ''macbuild.sh'' script:
+<code>
+$ ./macbuild.sh
+</code>
+===== Build X2Go Client from Scratch (w/o Mac Ports) =====
+==== Variables ====
 This document makes use of several variables to address paths in a generic, but distinct way. They are not meant to be used via shell, but for human parsing. No program of the x2go suite actually uses them for anything. You may "set" them to whatever value you want to (in your head), just don't change them half-way through the building process. The "default value" is merely a suggestion.
