Re: 'lots of little changes' merge done



You need dwarf_utilities-25, I think. I'm not sure where to get it from for Tiger, I will inquire. It should be in the next Leopard seed (if you have access to Leopard seeds). In the meantime, you can avoid the problem by copying /bin/true into your path as 'dsymutil'; the problem with that, or an autoconf test or whatever, is that if you say 'gcc -g t.c -g -o t', debugging won't work.

Geoff, *please* don't take this the wrong way, but can you please stop breaking the build for darwin for the current production OS X release?

I understand you develop on future versions, but the majority of us
with macs do not.

I'd really appreciate it if you would test your changes in an
environment that others have access to.

Breaking i386-darwin on Tiger means I can't get work done for stage1
as fast as I want to, and also hurts a bunch of other people.

As such, I want to start the 48 hour clock on this change.

I understand you probably can't get dwarf-utilities-25 out to people
in that time frame, so i would suggest you do one of the following

1. Conditionalize this change on dwarf-utilities-25 being present (as
roger suggests)
2. Conditionalize the change on the host being a proper version of Leopard
3. Revert the patch (or move it to Apple's branch) until others can
get access to the tools necessary to make it work.

Thanks,
Dan
