+I was able to build snow leopard completely for the first time over last night (it took a very long time to build all the tools and dependancies). Woohoo!
+
+The way I was able to fully build on a 32-bit 10.6 machine was this
+
+1. Delete ~/.ghc and ~/.cabal. They were full of random things and were causing problems.
+2. `brew uninstall ghc and haskell-platform`
+3. `brew update`
+4. `brew install git ossp-uuid md5sha1sum coreutils libgsasl gnutls libidn libgsasl pkg-config libxml2`
+5. `brew upgrade git ossp-uuid md5sha1sum coreutils libgsasl gnutls libidn libgsasl pkg-config libxml2` (Some of these were already installed/up to date.
+6. `brew link libxml2`
+7. `brew install haskell-platform` (This takes a long, long time).
+8. `cabal update` (assuming you have added `~/.cabal/bin` to your path
+9. `cabal install cablal-install`
+10. `cabal install c2hs`
+11. `cabal install git-annex`
+
+
+It also appears to be running fairly smoothly than it had in the past on a 32-bit SL system. Thats also neat.
+
+The problem is that it seems to not really work as git annex though, probably due to the error relating you get when you start up the webapp:
+Running
+`git annex webapp`
+The browser starts up, and I get 3 of these errors:
+`Watcher crashed: Need at least OSX 10.7.0 for file-level FSEvents`
+
+Pairing with a local computer appears to work to systems running 10.7, but when you complete the process, they never show up in the repository list.
+
+
+Also on a side note, when running `git annex webapp` it triggers the opening of an html file in whatever the default html file handler is. I edit a lot of html, so for me that is usually a text editor. I had to change the file handler to open html files with my web browser for the `git annex webapp` to actually work. Is there a way to change that so that `git annex webapp` uses the default web browser for the system rather than the default html file handler?

+@Bret, the assistant relies on FSEvents pretty heavily. It seems to me your best bet is to upgrade OSX to a version that supports FSEvents.
+
+You can certainly use the rest of git-annex on Snow Leopard without FSEvents.

+Rather than specifying --bindir on the command line for cabal, I edited my ~/.cabal/config to add this line:
+
+ symlink-bindir: /usr/local/bin
+
+This installs the binaries to ~/.cabal/bin but symlinks them into /usr/local/bin alongside the links that homebrew installs. Additionally, I symlinked /usr/local/bin/git-annex-shell to /usr/local/bin/git-annex which made things work great from remote hosts via ssh.

+The [FSevents framework itself has been around since leopard](http://arstechnica.com/apple/2007/10/mac-os-x-10-5/7/).
+
+[This fsevents wrapper project](https://github.com/rastersize/CDEvents) supports snow leopard and even leopard, maybe it will provide some clues on how it was done.
+
+I'm guessing it would be worth it, [snow leopard is still the most popular OSX as of April](http://www.patentlyapple.com/patently-apple/2013/04/snow-leopard-remains-the-most-popular-version-of-os-x.html). From my own experience, snow leopard is a huge life extender for 2+ year old hardware. Lion just makes them sluggishly painful to use.

+The git-annex assistant uses **file level** FSevents to detect which files have been changed. Would it be possible to make it work with older versions that don't provide file-level events? Probably. The code for BSD kqueue deals with similar limitations in needing to scan the directory to find the files that actually changed. If someone cares about old versions of OSX and wants to do that work I'll happily support you.

+Hello,
+
+I just compiled git-annex using cabal on OS X, and I see there is no dbus support:
+
+ Assistant/Threads/NetWatcher.hs:26:0:
+ warning: #warning Building without dbus support; will poll for network connection changes
+
+ Assistant/Threads/MountWatcher.hs:33:0:
+ warning: #warning Building without dbus support; will use mtab polling
+
+Is this problematic? I see I can install dbus using homebrew. If I do so, will I have dbus support (after recompiling git-annex)?

Apparently, [Lion](http://www.redmondpie.com/os-x-lion-vs-os-x-snow-leopard-head-to-head-performance-showdown/) and [Mountain Lion are fine on older hardware](http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/58453/will-mountain-lion-make-an-older-computer-run-faster-or-slower). For a while [a daemon cause Lion slowdowns for a day after upgrade](https://discussions.apple.com/message/15719036) for a while, which was enough to cause a reputation.

+@Alan you don't need to install dbus on OSX. The polling code will work. On the other hand if you'd like to experiment with installing dbus and report back, perhaps it's worth a try. It's nice when the git-annex assistant can instantly detect when drives are plugged in, and then the network connection changes and react to it. On Linux, dbus gives it that capability.

+You probably need to install libdbus dev stuff, and then the haskell dbus library. But it's certainly going to need code changes to make git-annex use dbus in any way on OSX, assuming there are even useful dbus events generated for network connections and drives being mounted on OSX.

+It was saying \"gcrypt\" when it meant \"git-remote-gcrypt\".
