No more support for Mac/OSX:
Due to the high resource consumption of maintaining the Mac builds and lack of continued support from the Qt team for Qt4/PyQt4, we have no choice but to pull OSX support until we can upgrade Armory to Python3 and Qt5.
Are there any changes that would prevent me from compiling it myself for Mac/OSX?

Edit: Got it working and pull requested fixes for Qt. PM me if you want the binary I compiled.
Any chance you can write out the steps I can use to compile it myself for OS X? Thanks.
Just follow the instructions here with pull request #315.
Thanks, I'll try. A few questions:
  • If it's so easy to make the OS X build, why didn't they just do it?
  • Have you tested your OS X compiled Armory 0.93.3 with Bitcoin Core 0.11.1? Is everything working? Are transactions getting broadcast, and so on?
  • Let's say I upgrade to Bitcoin Core 0.11.1 and run it, and then run the older Armory 0.93.2. Will anything break? Or will Armory tell me something is wrong right away? Or will Armory just fail to broadcast transactions? What exactly could go wrong?
