The patch ensures to compile and link LyX for macOS versions before 10.12 (Sierra as of 2016) (10.11 is El Capitan). The use of these systems is not recommended, AFAIK. >> This closes the following ticket >> https://trac.macports.org/ticket/61108 > > Stephan, any thoughts? Yes. 1. IMO, the link back server is a problem with Apple sandbox strategy in general. See e.g. https://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg200962.html 2. I cannot see any movement with the project. https://www.linkbackproject.org/about/ 3. E.g. Qt 5.12 don’t support macos less than 10.12 too https://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-5.12/macos.html I think this patch isn’t critical - but it wouldn’t hurt either.
