The following is the commands you should type to install aMule on MacOS X.
This HowTo is written to install aMule 2.0.0rc4 but should work for any other version. Please note that you should always download the latest aMule version available.
Whenever curl is used, if it isn't installed on your system, just download the file manually. Lines beginning with a # character are comments on what the following lines do.

# make amule dir in home
cd ~
mkdir amule
cd amule

# get source from the internet and unpack it
curl -O http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/wxwindows/wxMac-2.5.2.tar.gz
curl -O http://download.berlios.de/amule/crypto-5.1.tar.bz2
curl -O http://download.berlios.de/amule/aMule-2.0.0rc4.tar.gz
tar -xzf aMule-2.0.0rc4.tar.gz
tar -xjf crypto-5.1.tar.bz2
tar -xzf wxMac-2.5.2.tar.gz

# remove downloaded archives after unpacking
rm wxMac-2.5.2.tar.gz crypto-5.1.tar.bz2 aMule-2.0.0rc4.tar.gz

# install wxMac
cd wxMac-2.5.2
mkdir build
cd build
../configure
make
sudo make install
cd ..
cd ..

# install libcrypto
cd crypto-5.1
make
sudo make install
cd ..
mv crypto-5.1 cryptopp
sudo ranlib /usr/lib/libcryptopp.a

# install fink
# http://optusnet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/fink/Fink-0.7.0-Installer.dmg
sudo apt-get install gtk+
sudo apt-get install gtk+-shlibs

# install aMule
cd aMule-2.0.0rc4
./configure --disable-systray --disable-gsocket --disable-gtk --with-wx-prefix=/usr/local --with-wx-config=/usr/local/bin/wx-config --with-crypto-prefix=/Users/YOUR_NAME_HOME/amule/
make
cd ..

# create app-Container
curl -O http://one2one.no.sapo.pt/amule.zip
unzip amule.zip
rm amule.zip
cp aMule-2.0.0rc4/src/amule amule.app/Contents/MacOS/

# move amule to your Applications folder
mv amule.app /Applications

If you get an error like this: You cannot open the application "amule" because it may be damaged or incomplete, right click on amule then click on Show Packages Contents, go to Contents>MacOS> and double click on amule. Next time you start from amule.app it will run fine. If you still get the same error, move amule.app to the desktop and run it from there.
