Modify the script in step 5 by changing <code>LIBPREFIX="/usr/local"</code> and adding the following line to the cmake arguments:

Using MacPorts

  1. Download and install MacPorts
  2. Edit the MacPorts variants config (optional).
    Add this line to /opt/local/etc/macports/variants.conf
    -x11 +quartz
  3. In Terminal (Applications>Utilities>Terminal) type
    sudo port install \
         adwaita-icon-theme \
         boehmgc \
         boost \
         cairo \
         ccache \
         cmake \
         double-conversion \
         gdl3 \
         gettext \
         gsl \
         gtkmm3 \
         gtk-osx-application-gtk3 \
         lcms2 \
         libsoup \
         libxslt \
         ninja \
         poppler \
         potrace \
         py-lxml \
         py-numpy \
         -x11 +quartz
    
  4. In Terminal, get Inkscape
    git clone --recurse-submodules https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape.git
    
  5. And build inkscape
    # use a clean MacPorts environment (optional)
    LIBPREFIX="/opt/local"
    export PATH="$LIBPREFIX/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin"
    
    # where to install
    PREFIX="$PWD/install-prefix"
    
    # where to build
    mkdir build
    cd build
    
    cmake \
        -G Ninja \
        -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="$LIBPREFIX" \
        -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="$PREFIX" \
        -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=ccache \
        -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=ccache \
        -DWITH_OPENMP=OFF \
        ../inkscape
    
    ninja
    ninja install
    

    Note: Using ccache and ninja is not required, but very common because it speeds up compilation.

  6. Run Inkscape
    $PREFIX/bin/inkscape
    

Using Homebrew

If you are using Homebrew instead, you can still use the above guidelines with small modifications.

List of packages to install with brew (for Inkscape 1.1):

brew install \
    adwaita-icon-theme \
    bdw-gc \
    boost \
    cairomm \
    ccache \
    cmake \
    double-conversion \
    gettext \
    gsl \
    gspell \
    gtk-mac-integration \
    gtkmm3 \
    imagemagick \
    intltool \
    lcms2 \
    libomp \
    libsoup \
    libxslt \
    ninja \
    poppler \
    potrace

You may substitute imagemagick with graphicsmagick.

gtk-mac-integration is not needed with latest 1.2-dev.

Some keg-only libraries need to be added to $PKG_CONFIG_PATH

This was tested on an M1 MacBook Air with macOS 11.6 and Inkscape 1.2-dev. It only worked for me with the command line tools SDK and required `-isysroot $SDKROOT` and explicit linker flags (see below).

# use a clean Homebrew environment (optional)
LIBPREFIX="/opt/homebrew"
export PATH="$LIBPREFIX/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin"

# use command line tools SDK (Xcode SDK didn't work for me)
export SDKROOT="/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk"

# keg-only libraries
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$LIBPREFIX/opt/icu4c/lib/pkgconfig"
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:$LIBPREFIX/opt/libsoup@2/lib/pkgconfig"

# where to install
PREFIX="$PWD/install-prefix"

mkdir -p build
cd build

cmake \
    -G Ninja \
    -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-isysroot $SDKROOT" \
    -DCMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS="-L$LIBPREFIX/lib" \
    -DCMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS="-L$LIBPREFIX/lib" \
    -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$PREFIX \
    -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=ccache \
    -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=ccache \
    -DWITH_DBUS=OFF \
    ..

ninja
ninja install
