#15437: Ghostscript 8.62_1+Universal fails on PPC macs --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: vcpatel@emory.edu | Owner: takanori@macports.org Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Changes (by takanori@macports.org): * status: new => closed * resolution: => fixed Comment: Hi, I could reproduce the problem. As you say, gs binary built on Intel based macs does not work properly on PPC, and vice versa. So I disabled this useless +universal variant simply. (r37154) # To tell the truth, I don't have any interest in keeping this feature since I have already changed my machine from PPC to Intel completely. Maybe this is the biggest problem... ;-) Anyway, thank you for reporting! p.s. Basically, I don't recommend you to use +universal variant because it is not stable yet - some ports may work well, but some ports may not work. I think you'd better install both Intel and ppc trees separately on your file server. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/15437#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
