#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 macports@…): Well, Qt-based applications are expected to be built with the same toolchain (so-called {{{mkspecs}}}) that was used to build the Qt libraries. This makes sense because different compilers may use different, incompatible ABIs. To be honest, I don't know if gcc40 and gcc42 are 100 % ABI-compatible or if we might run into trouble when building qt4-creator-mac with a different toolchain than qt4-mac. So I guess the best fix for PowerPC would indeed be to force qt4-mac to be built with gcc42. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39967#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
