> Renee, any thoughts/updates, relative to fixing...?
as discussed at many places, the issue is not specific to this port or any
other individual port depending on Qt5, but related to how the Qt5 handles
the detection of the SDK. This is something that should be fixed
correctly, most likely in the {{{qt5}}} PortGroup. However, in theory
there shouldn't be a reason to require a full XCode installation anywhere
and for sure not on older systems where everything works fine.
Having said that I changed jobs and am not using a Mac as my primary
system anymore. I will continue to update "my" ports and try to contribute
where I can, but this specific problem is not something I will work on. So
if the MacPort project decides that, for the lack of a better solution,
adding {{{use_xcode yes}}} in the {{{qt5}}} PG (perhaps conditionally for
only the newer systems where these failures are observed) is the
appropriate thing to do, the feel free to do so.
