Comment (by Wowfunhappy):
If there is still interest in this, please use the new set of files I've
just attached.
What I didn't realize two weeks ago was that RJVB independently added
Mavericks compatibility to QT 5.9 several years back, in his MacStrop
repository of custom port files. We made many of the same changes, but
RJVB made some edits I did not, and unlike me I'm pretty sure he actually
knew what he was doing. Furthermore, his qmacstyle is based on the QT 5.9
version rather than the 5.8 version, so the diff count is reasonable and
you can see what actually changed.
(This also means it's basically RJVB's work, I just pulled out the patches
needed for Mavericks, since Macstrop contains many other more extensive
edits!)
QTTools is ''still'' failing with the same error. The failure looks to be
in Linguist, so the easy way out would be to just disable that piece...
but again, the whole of QTTools builds fine outside of MacPorts, so it
should be able to work.
