Compiling without a PPC Mac

Post by realityking »

Hi,

I'm playing a little with the source and would like to encode myself a HandBrake from scratch (ergo without the downloaded pre-compiled libraries) however I don't have access to a PPC Mac - is this possible?

I believe so, but the result will be Intel-only. The way I did it in the past was to run jam, ignore the failure, then package up the contribs as they are in the downloaded bundle. But there's probably a better way.

Would this be built from an Intel Mac? If so, you can still produce universal binaries just fine, and build just fine.
