Hi,

I have never tried to compile KTechLab for OS X, so chances are that
KTechLab itself needs some fixes before it works.

For trying to compile for OS X, I should use a virtual machine, a
cross compiler, or something else?
Currently I do not have a mac.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=391730

At the first sight KTechLab uses some undocumented platform-specific
(x11 specific) APIs there, which probably should be reworked.

Have fun,

 Zoltan
