Hi,
for several years I've been successfully using gcc-mp-6 on a PPC Mac running OS
X 10.5. I installed MacPorts and gcc-mp-6 back in 2017 and haven't updated
anything concerning MacPorts since. Now I wanted to install a new MacPorts
package and in order to install the package it also forced me to update
MacPorts. In hindsight that was a BIG, BIG mistake because of course it aborted
somewhere in the middle of the update process and now it looks like my
installation is f*** up because whenever I try to link something I now get the
error:
ld: can't write output file <foo> for architecture ppc
gcc-mp-6 itself apparently is still working. I have compared the object files
generated by it from before and after the attempted MacPorts update and they're
identical but ld seems broken. Is there any way I can get ld back up and
running?
No, I don't have a backup of my old MacPorts installation, another mistake :(
It's really annoying. I really could've sensed that updating a 2017 MacPorts
installation on a 20 year old system nobody besides me is still using would
never go through but still I tried... silly, silly me!!
Any idea how I can get that fixed?
