+If you are building `bitcoind` or `Bitcoin-Qt` for others, your build machine should be set up
as follows for maximum compatibility:
All dependencies should be compiled with these flags:
- -mmacosx-version-min=10.5 -arch i386 -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk
+ -mmacosx-version-min=10.6
+ -arch x86_64
+ -isysroot $(xcode-select --print-path)/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk
For MacPorts, that means editing your macports.conf and setting
`macosx_deployment_target` and `build_arch`:
- macosx_deployment_target=10.5
- build_arch=i386
+ macosx_deployment_target=10.6
+ build_arch=x86_64
... and then uninstalling and re-installing, or simply rebuilding, all ports.
As of December 2012, the `boost` port does not obey `macosx_deployment_target`.
Download `http://gavinandresen-bitcoin.s3.amazonaws.com/boost_macports_fix.zip`
-for a fix. Some ports also seem to obey either `build_arch` or
-`macosx_deployment_target`, but not both at the same time. For example, building
-on an OS X 10.6 64-bit machine fails. Official release builds of Bitcoin-Qt are
-compiled on an OS X 10.6 32-bit machine to workaround that problem.
