I can't upgrade git-core from 1.6.0.2_2 to 1.6.0.4_0 on Mac OS X 10.4.11 Intel with Xcode 2.5:

I just realized that -rpath is a new feature in Xcode 3.x. Is there a possibility in MacPorts to check whether I'm compiling on Tiger or Leopard?

[maccheck@…]

Could you test the install with new attached Makefile patch, please? I don't have a Tiger machine to test it at the moment...

[garribald@…]

I have tested git-core 1.6.0.4 with the new patch and it worked well for me (OS X 10.4.11). Thanks!

[ridgcote@…]

Attempted to upgrade to git-core 1.6.0.4 from 1.6.0.2, the upgrade failed with the same error as above. Uninstalled git-core 1.6.0.2 and attempted clean install of 1.6.0.4 - also fails, with same error. Recovered 1.6.0.2 from backup for now, running OS X 10.4.11 PPC -Xcode 2.5

Replying to maccheck@…:

I too have 10.4.11, and the new Makefile patch fixed this problem for me as well.

Cc reporter of dup #17264.

[simon@…]

I committed the fix in r42257 but didn't increase the revision as Tiger users couldn't install it at all, no need to require updating for everybody.

Thanks! It works for me.
