#52290: perl5.22 @5.22.2: Build failure on 10.6 ------------------------------+--------------------- Reporter: ridethecliche@… | Owner: mojca@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.4 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: perl5.22 | ------------------------------+--------------------- Comment (by ryandesign@…): Replying to [comment:6 ken.cunningham.webuse@…]:
I would not think it would be possible to build something on macports 10.6 and deploy it on 10.5.
MacPorts does include functionality that's supposed to make this possible, specifically changing the deployment target. However, this macports.conf setting is not advertised, because support for this setting varies greatly among ports. Looks like the perl ports may be among those that don't support it properly. Or it may relate to building for a non-default architecture, since the reporter mentioned that:
However if I set build_arch to i386 in macports.conf and do "sudo port -v -s install perl5" the build fails in the same manner as my first report.
I assume that means the deployment target was not changed to 10.5 for that test. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52290#comment:8> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for the Mac operating system
