The latest legacy-support-devel (v20250530) is a release candidate for the <br>
new version, so it would be useful to get some broader testing. The most <br>
significant changes are the complete rewrite of all the clock functions <br>
for better speed, accuracy, and compatibility.<br>
<br>
Since there are some cases where the architecture is relevant, and my G5 <br>
is inoperative, it would be useful if someone could test on a G5, <br>
preferably running 10.5. That's just a matter of running "port test <br>
legacy-support-devel" while targeting ppc64 as the architecture. Since <br>
build_arch is usually set to ppc rather than ppc64 on a G5 (for good <br>
reason), this would require either overriding build_arch on the command <br>
line or testing +universal (provided that universal_archs includes ppc64). <br>
Since the latter is also unlikely, the first approach is probably the most <br>
convenient.<br>
<br>
An example of doing this on a G4, with the expected obvious failure, is:<br>
<br>
MacMini:~ fw$ sudo port test legacy-support-devel build_arch=ppc64<br>

---> Verifying checksums for legacy-support-devel<br>

---> Building legacy-support-devel<br>
---> Staging legacy-support-devel into destroot<br>
---> Testing legacy-support-devel<br>
Error: Failed to test legacy-support-devel: command execution failed<br>
[...]<br>
<br>
On a G5 the above should work, and take under a minute.<br>
