#39967: qt4-creator-mac 2.8.0_1 fails building on 10.5.8 PPC ------------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: braumann@… | Owner: macports@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.2.0 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: qt4-creator-mac | ------------------------------+------------------------ Comment (by braumann@…): Hmm, to my surprise you were right, once I had rebuild qt4-mac setting gcc42 as compiler calling {{{ sudo port install qt4-mac configure.compiler=gcc-4.2 }}} then I again called {{{ sudo port upgrade qt4-creator-mac configure.compiler=gcc-4.2 }}} and - voilà - qt4-creator-mac 2.8.1 could be built. For some unknown reason during the building of qt4-creator-mac that compiler setting is used which was previously taken for building qt4-mac, other settings might be ignored (see above). So I suggest to modify the portfile of qt4-mac in order to obligatory select gcc42 there. And maybe the mechanism of building qt4-creator-mac also needs some repair, I would have expected that a compiler setting using configure.compiler is strictly accepted. gcc40 anyway is not sufficient for qt4-creator-mac 2.8.1 -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39967#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
