True, but there is no PPC buildbot AFAIK, and that’s the only case of mono-processor Apple machines; even the first x86 machines were CoreDuo based, if I’m not mistaken. We already have debated about Atlas – personally, I think the best solution would be to disable binary download altogether, since the code is so closely tied to the underlying hardware. It doesn’t make sense to use code built for another CPU because it can be under- or over-optimized. > This should be selectable by variant.

The threaded version of Atlas won’t build on mono-processor machines because OpenMP denies the creating of threads and Atlas raises an assertion. So the choice if somehow forced. Besides, on multicore machines, both serial and threaded version are built… Vincent _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
