I know... That is why I suggested two buildbots. One which runs Leopard and builds a 32 bit version and one which runs SnowLeopard which builds a 64 bit version. Not perfect, as you can not run the 64 bit version on Leopard, but better than what we have now. > > If we built against the 10.5 SDK, rather than the installed headers and > libraries in /usr/include and /usr/lib, we could get something that worked on > 10.5.x and 10.6.y for most if not all values of x and y. > > However, the x86-64 version wouldn't work on Core Solo or Core Duo machines, > so we'd have to either > > 1) say "64-bit only"; As I said: we could have two buildbots... > > 2) offer both 32-bit x86 and x86-64 versions (and, if we're really > ambitious, PPC and PPC64 versions); I really have G5 which could build a 64 bit version, but I'm not sure if anyone wants it.
