#20044: cairo-1.8.8 fails to build as universal on Tiger (ppc) -----------------------+-------------------------- Reporter: cgtobi@… | Owner: ryandesign@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.7.1 Resolution: wontfix | Keywords: tiger Port: cairo | -----------------------+-------------------------- Changes (by ryandesign@…): * status: new => closed * resolution: => wontfix Comment: Replying to [comment:5 jmr@…]:

Looks like the old gcc-4.0 SDK bug. Is this still an issue with curent versions?

Yes and no: No, this particular error should no longer occur, because it was a bug in gcc-4.0, and MacPorts now uses apple-gcc-4.2 by default on Tiger instead of gcc-4.0. But at the same time, because of that change, a universal build of cairo and most other ports is not possible anymore on Tiger because apple- gcc-4.2 does not support i386/ppc universal builds. (It claims to support ppc/ppc64 and i386/x86_64 universal builds.) If you need to build universal for i386/ppc, use Leopard or Snow Leopard. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/20044#comment:6> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
