Issue 2338 refers the (now poorly-named) osx-universal version which is only for x86, while this refers specifically to the PPC version. I would consider them to be two different code bases, so bugs for each should be treated separately.

Comment #19 on issue 2271 by d...@gnu.org: 2.15.27 won't open on Mac 10.4 PPC http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2271 It would be at least _one_ data point if LilyPond (and LilypondTool) worked on 10.3.9. If you consider upgrading to 10.4, be aware that it is common for newer versions to have larger resource requirements. If the system is in active use, that could become a nuisance if the 10.3.9 installation is not kept in parallel. ___ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond

He said we should use 0.4 for that. I have no evidence that GUB is broken[1]. It cannot compile git master, but that's due to a problem in git master, not GUB. [1] I realize that Phil encountered some difficulty, but I have no reason to think this is any unusual breakage in GUB. I think it's just the usual 10-100 hours of work that it takes to set up GUB on a platform that differs in any respect (be it linux distribution or cpu architecture) from the working one. I may revise this claim if I can't build doc, but so far GUB seems just the same as always to me. ___ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond

It is not yet clear whether it will work on 10.4, or if we still need to use the 0.4 version of the lilypond-app bundle for use on ppc with OSX 10.4. The question has been asked, but has not yet been answered. Also, GUB is currently broken, so we can't test a patch that would move the ppc version of mac-osx-lilypond-app back to 0.4 (which works with ppc on OSX 10.4). Work is progressing, but apparently not there quite yet. ___ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond

His fix moved _both_ the PPC and the x86 darwin ports to 0.6, and removed the commend that said we wanted to keep ppc at 0.4. Issue 1943 was an x86 issue. Seems to me we should have PPC be 0.4, and x86 be 0.6, and both platforms would be happy.

Comment #1 on issue 2271 by d...@gnu.org: 2.15.27 won't open on Mac 10.4 PPC http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2271 According to Wikipedia, Mac OSX 10.4 "Tiger" was released in 2005, was superseded in 2007, and got its last security update in 2009 (with another security update in 2009 no longer covering it). Its successor 10.5 "Leopard" is the last version released for PPC, in 2007. 10.4 is the last version supporting some "Classic" system calls IIUC, so since 10.5 is the total end of line for PPC, there might be some incentive to stick with 10.4. Nevertheless I don't see that the discontinued PPC line is important enough for us to bend over backwards more than the last released version. I don't know who of us actually does the MacOSX ports and how much work would be involved here, and we might consider making a brief announcement on the general user list to see if there is anybody around for whom moving to 10.5 is indeed not an option. But I am strongly inclined to declare the support for MacOSX 10.4 ended. I would be surprised if we actually have the platform and skills available for making sure that the compiled system will work with 10.4, and unless somebody steps up to fill this void (presumably because he is running this platform himself), I see no point in pretending we could support this usefully. ___ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
