#15635: Ruby 1.8.7 dumps core on 10.5 ppc ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: blair@macports.org | Owner: pguyot@kallisys.net Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Resolution: | Keywords: ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment (by febeling@macports.org): Replying to [comment:7 pguyot@kallisys.net]:
From what I understand, it will break tk support.
Yes, I've seen that note as well. I don't know what is best to do. Maybe it's better to break only Tk than the entire PPC target, and do some dodgy if arch == powerpc thing. I've filed a bug with the ruby project for this though, because it happens with a pure tar ball as well: http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/193 I mean there is no working ruby 1.8.7 for that machine right now, it seems. But I think most people want it for rails and such, where tk is quite secondary. I think have never invoked a single Tk widget in the 3 years I use ruby. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/15635#comment:8> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
