#32472: Root compiles with qt4-mac but does not work ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: martin.zeman@… | Owner: jonesc@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.3 Keywords: | Port: root ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment(by jonesc@…): Valeri doesn't need to support MacPorts (nor would I expect him to). In its simplest form, MacPorts is just an automated systems for build code. In the case of root it just runs {{{ ./configure --various-options make make install }}} Of course, the devil is in the details of what options are enabled. To see this, just install the port with the -v option {{{ sudo port -v install root +qt_mac }}} Maybe something wrong can be spotted there. This just builds root against the Mac (Aqua) QT4 installation. The same one is used by a lot of ports, including an entire KDE4 ecosystem, that work fine, so I think there is most probably nothing wrong with the QT4 MacPorts provides. Personally, I'm only interested in getting QT working in the above way, with whatever comes with the root tar ball itself. If QtRoot is a separate project, someone else will have to step up and provide the Portfile for that...
