Re: [gentoo-user] problem with aqua keyword
So, using the aqua use flag is not possible on a normal pc, right?

Re: [gentoo-user] problem with aqua keyword
Hi, Based on that earlier reply and Dirk's reply, I would assume this is a Mac only USE flag. So, this is not possible on a normal PC, old IBM compatible. Dale :-) :-) Xi Shen wrote: So, using the aqua use flag is not possible on a normal pc, right? Thanks :)
[gentoo-user] problem with aqua keyword
hi, i ran into a strange problem. i am using gentoo 2008 amd64, with kde 4.3. i want to try the aqua gui with kde desktop. so i enabled aqua use flag, but when emerge kdelibs, it requires a tool named install_name_tool which is a apple dev tool. so i think i could get this tool by emerging gcc-apple. but gcc-apple requires x64-macos. do i have to change my CHOST to x64-macos and rebuild my whole system? is it possible to emerge the gcc-apple with my linux CHOST? -- Best Regards, David Shen http://twitter.com/davidshen84/ http://meme.yahoo.com/davidshen84/
