Hi, Those of you that keep track of the repository cannot have helped but notice that it has indeed changes. Wat was trunk/src is now trunk/source, and the four build scripts have been replaced by just one. trunk/source is a subset of the new build system for texlive2009. The migration to the new tree is now nearly perfect (well, if you are on linux). Compared to the old build tree, there are still two known regressions: * If your system platform needs a library to be linked in for socket support, that doesn't work yet. * The build version number is always 'unknown'. Oh, and the crosscompilation for mingw doesn't work yet, but that likely affects only myself. Peter Breitenlohner (who designed the new build system) and I are still working on these points. Best wishes, Taco

Hello Taco & Dick, I have now [finally] managed to get my computer back to work (neglecting some minor issues) and upgraded to Leopard. To Taco - first thanks a lot for combining the building script into a single one. This is mainly a question to Dick, Arthur or any other Mac addict on the list. I would like to be able to compile the binaries for OSX 10.4 and for PPC. Dick, how exactly do you compile the binaries for TeX Live? I have found some old Arthur's code that I will test now: export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.4 SDK=/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk CFLAGS="-isysroot ${SDK} -arch ppc" XCFLAGS="-isysroot ${SDK} -arch ppc" CXXFLAGS="-isysroot ${SDK} -arch ppc" LDFLAGS="-arch ppc" export CFLAGS CXXFLAGS LDFLAGS XCFLAGS Am I right in my assumptions that compiling for 10.3 is possible on Tiger, but not on Leopard without some special tweaking of the system? I will test and then ask for some changes in LuaTeX building script that would enable owners of Leopard to compile for older OS, but since Taco is trying to make the script TeX Live-ready, I would like to ask "the expert" how to do it properly, so that the script will be usable for both TeX Live and for stand-alone (cross-)compilation. If I request some changes, it would make sense if they would not interfere with TeX-Live building process. Thanks a lot for any hint, Mojca PS for Dick: I'm talking about possible modifications of svn://scm.foundry.supelec.fr/svn/luatex/trunk/build.sh, in particular we now have this: if [ "$PPCCROSS" = "TRUE" ] then B=ppc CFLAGS="-arch ppc $CFLAGS" XCFLAGS="-arch ppc $XCFLAGS" CXXFLAGS="-arch ppc $CXXFLAGS" LDFLAGS="-arch ppc $LDFLAGS" export CFLAGS CXXFLAGS LDFLAGS XCFLAGS fi I would like to request addition of MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.4 and isysroot switch, after I test it of course.

Just wanted to let you know that the build.sh script itself will not go into texlive. It will be used for the standalone luatex distribution, but that is it. Best wishes, Taco

OK, thanks for the information - I just misunderstood your message. In that case I do not need to worry about breaking anything in TL if I request changes, but I need to test anyway, hoping that backward-compatible compilation will still work. Thanks, Mojca
