Hello again,
I've just downloaded a minimal for mac os x/power-pc and experience the following problem:
I've thought that the "brokenness" of the binary in the minimals is only related to image inclusion, but it seems as if this touches more ares. I have no problems in generating new binaries myself. Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net

Like Martin said already: you get this kind of magic when the large file support in the binary is misconfigured/miscompiled. Not a macro problem at all. Best wishes, Taco

If that's a problem with misconfiguration/"miscompilation", then I'm the one to be accused :P The binary has most probably been cross-compiled on mac intel (some versions were compiled natively, don't remember which one and when), but it has been compiled the same way as the one for intel, only with CFLAGS="-arch ppc" LDFLAGS="-arch ppc" CXXFLAGS="-arch ppc" ./build.sh (thanks to Arthur) and with no special settings or other configuration options. XeTeX, metapost and LuaTeX have been compiled in the same way, but apparently they work? On Sat, Apr 19, 2008 at 2:56 PM, Martin Schröder wrote:

No, it's glibc. :-(
Jonathan Kew has said that I might want to select a lower version of something (maybe gcc) when cross-compiling for ppc. Could that be part of the problem? The problem is that I only build the ppc binaries and never have a chance to test them. Mojca
Hi Martin,
I hope that I'll be able to build _and_ test the ppc binaries on Patrick's computer in the future.
I'll give you an account on my machine on monday... So we(=you :) might be able to track down this problem. Patrick -- ConTeXt wiki and more: http://contextgarden.net
