Darling: Run Apple OS X Binaries On Linux

Posted by Soulskill on from the sure-thing-sweetheart dept.

An anonymous reader writes "After having Wine to run Windows binaries on Linux, there is now the Darling Project that allows users to run unmodified Apple OS X binaries on Linux. The project builds upon GNUstep and has built the various frameworks/libraries to be binary compatible with OSX/Darwin. The project is still being worked on as part of an academic thesis but is already running basic OS X programs."

    o BSD/MIT: do it and tell us.
    o GPLv2: ask us for permission.
    o GPLv3: Don't even look at it.

    LOL its nice to see a random Apple shareholder [Sorry about the shareprice btw] promoting BSD its so quaint. I notice BSD nix has suffered a great deal since Apples one way take. Linux on the other hand seems to be be thriving.
