Comment(by macsforever2000@…):

 Replying to [comment:11 smgava@…]:
 > ok, then do you mean that qt4-mac will build ok not universal? i have an
 x86_64 mac and would very much like to get this package built, how then
 can i tell macports to build for that arch only? macports builds universal
 by default...

 Yes, qt4-mac builds just fine on Snow Leopard on 64-bit Intel Macs. There
 have been some problems building it, see also #20199 but that is not the
 problem you are seeing. Macports does not, however, build universal by
 default. Can you post the output of {{{port installed}}}?

 You probably changed something in your macports.conf file to make
 universal the default. What does your "build_arch" line look like? If you
 are running from svn trunk (1.8.99), I recommend you delete or move aside
 your macports.conf file and use the default one. You can find those files
 in {{{/opt/local/etc/macports}}} unless you have a different $prefix.
 Warning: you likely will have to reinstall all of the dependents of
 qt4-mac as non-universal too. The easiest thing to do it uninstall
 everything and reinstall what you need.

 > if you can change ticket flags, can you update this one to version
 1.8.99 too? thnx

 Well other people have reported the problem with version 1.8.0 and the
 latest release is 1.8.1. The version of macports is not terribly important
 in this case and is not the cause of the problem.
