This cannot be the whole truth, because I have:

The target presumingly is not correctly named. The text Darwin8.11.0_gcc-apple-4.2_OPT.OBJ looks incorrect. Nowhere below the work directory does such a directory exist. And the text certhtml does not exist in any Makefile, it exists only here:

[kencu (Ken)]

confirmed this issue on clean TIgerPPC system.

Fix is not presently obvious to me.

[kencu (Ken)]

same issue on 3.84

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

Interestingly versions 3.84 and 3.85 both build on PPC Leopard…

[kencu (Ken)]

the problem here is the gmake port, currently at version 4.4, is too new to build this, but the make on Tiger is too old.

So, we need a new plan.

[kencu (Ken)]

In 0022160d24a12bf9018a501b7ae34c4f2b22be51/macports-ports (master):

nss: use gmake-apple on Tiger

the make in the gmake port is too new for this build
closes: #66270

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

Did nss build for you on Tiger with gmake? I think I tried it myself and also reached the fault.

[kencu (Ken)]

gmake in the gmake port is too new.

this fixes it -- give a while to come your way and enjoy!

[ballapete (Peter "Pete" Dyballa)]

It built here too with gmake-apple @3.81_0. The ticket can be closed.

After finishing checking my Tiger tickets: Should I start decimate my open Leopard tickets?

[kencu (Ken)]

I would very much appreciate if you could screen your Leopard tickets and close/recommend closing the ones that have been fixed. Thanks.
