#50331: gpsbabel: fails to build on 10.6 due to the "qmake5" portgroup -------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: mojca@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Keywords: snowleopard | Port: gpsbabel -------------------------+-------------------------------- The gpsbabel port fails to build on snowleopard just because it uses qmake5. I see two things that could be fixed here: * If a port requires `qmake5` PortGroup, it could already fail in the pre-fetch phase on 10.6 rather than during the build of `qt5-qtbase`. * I'm almost sure that the port doesn't need to depend on Qt 5, in particular not in current shape when we are only shipping a command-line utility without the GUI. * (There is a fair chance that the port would work with Qt4, but I didn't try to investigate.) -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/50331> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

* If a port requires `qmake5` PortGroup, it could already fail in the pre-fetch phase on 10.6 rather than during the build of `qt5-qtbase`.
If qt5-qtbase doesn't build on 10.6, then failing in pre-fetch sounds like a change that should be made in qt5-qtbase, not in gpsbabel or other ports that use qt5-qtbase. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/50331#comment:1> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

I'm almost sure that one can build at least a text-based version with a regular `./configure && make`. (Not that any actual user reported that problem ...) -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/50331#comment:2> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
