Can't install qt4?

Pat, look here for instructions on how to install qt4 on systems upgraded with LibCxxOnOlderSystems.

<https://trac.macports.org/ticket/51844>

There is a patch there I submitted about a month ago, and your issue is likely the same kind of issue I had, given similar systems.


It is labelled as being a patch to port qt4-mac, so you know you can search for issues and patches against specific ports in the tracker:

<https://trac.macports.org/wiki/Tickets> 

and put qt4-mac into the search box, and you'll see what issues and fixes have been found -- will save you some time.



It doesn't look like there is much enthusiasm for applying the patch I made to the actual portfile, though, so you might need to do that yourself if you want it to work.

It does ultimately work, though:

$ port -v installed qt4*
The following ports are currently installed:
  qt4-mac @4.8.7_4 (active) platform='darwin 10' archs='x86_64'
  qt4-mac-sqlite3-plugin @4.8.7_1 (active) platform='darwin 10' archs='x86_64'



Best,

Ken
