I think we've established that os_arch should only be i386 or powerpc. The problem is that there is no code in MacPorts to set an appropriate default for build_arch on platforms other than Darwin. Until such code is added, you can set the correct build_arch in macports.conf. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
