#48336: x265 build fails on Leopard G4 PPC ----------------------------+----------------------------- Reporter: zanderpower@… | Owner: ays388@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.3 Resolution: | Keywords: leopard PowerPC Port: x265 | ----------------------------+----------------------------- Comment (by zanderpower@…): From what I have gleaned, it seems that x265 is unstable--at best--on PowerPCs. See[https://bitbucket.org/multicoreware/x265/issues/85/fallback- for-atomic-ops-usage] and [http://www.calculate-linux.org/packages/media- libs/x265] and these examples appear to be referring to 64-bit (running Linux at that). The most optimistic info I have found so far is [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/linux.debian.bugs.dist/w_gcORP9768]. And as before, this is (Debian) Linux. I don't know if this gives you any ideas. I'm not sure what they mean by "atomic", unless there is some assembly code that must be implemented to work around the problem, or some library that needs to be linked ("-latomic"?). Again, I am fine with a ffmpeg variant that lacks x265, until another option becomes viable (if it ever does). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/48336#comment:6> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
