Hmm, well, I guess it's not possible to install gnucash with qt3-mac, is it?

Also the qt3-mac port hasn't been modified for Lion so far. But who knows, perhaps it does build on Lion… I haven't had the chance to test this so far.
I guess it would need the same changes which qt3 experienced in the last few days.

Why isn't there a universal variant anyways? qt3-mac has it, why not qt3?
