Comment (by barracuda156):

 Replying to [comment:2 kencu]:
 > No version of qt5 works on darwin PowerPC, and likely never will, unless
 some funded genius who loves PowerPC darwin comes along, and has about a
 year to spend on it.

 It won't be solved if we get gcc10 or gcc11 running in Macports on
 PowerPC?

 I see is your primary point here.

 BTW on 10.6.8 `qt53` spits out a nonsense error message instead:

 {{{
 Error: Cannot install qt53-qtbase for the arch 'powerpc' because
 Error: its dependency zlib does not build for the required arch by default
 Error: and does not have a universal variant.
 Error: Follow https://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets if you believe
 there
 is a bug.
 }}}

 Obviously `zlib` builds for ppc, and I think without any tweaks too:

 {{{
 Sergey-Fedorovs-Mac-mini:~ svacchanda$ port -v installed zlib
 The following ports are currently installed:
   zlib @1.2.11_0 (active) requested_variants='' platform='darwin 10'
 archs='ppc' date='2022-01-23T07:08:38+0800'
 }}}
