#72613: Pandon 3.7.0.2 doesn't run on Snow Leopard x64
----------------------------------------+-----------------------------
Reporter: burgerbecky | Owner: (none)
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: High | Milestone: MacPorts Future
Component: ports | Version: 2.10.7
Keywords: pandoc snow leopard xserve | Port: pandoc
----------------------------------------+-----------------------------
It appears that pandoc is built using the latest Xcode and the binaries
stored on the MacPorts server. However, the latest Xcode uses instructions
that are not present on the Xeon 5000 series on the Xserve 2008. So, if
pandoc is invoked on Snow Leopard, it immediately terminates with "Illegal
Instruction". I can't seem to be able to build from source, as if the
feature was disabled for this port.
To duplicate...
On Snow Leopard using an Xserve or any circa 2009 Intel CPU, "sudo port
install pandoc"
After installation (It claims it's correct), run "pandoc"
It will display "Illegal Instruction"
