Re: [OMPI devel] Mac OS X 10.4.x users?
Fun fact: we cause configure to fail for OS X <= 10.4 anyway: https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/blob/master/configure.ac#L328-L347 According to the comment, we do this because of a known-bad implementation of pty in the OS X kernel that causes kernel panics. So I think we're definitely safe removing a OS X 10.4.x workaround. > On Sep 28, 2018, at 2:18 PM, Ralph H Castain wrote: > > Good lord - break away!! > >> On Sep 28, 2018, at 11:11 AM, Barrett, Brian via devel >> wrote: >> >> All - >> >> In trying to clean up some warnings, I noticed one (around pack/unpack in >> net/if.h) that is due to a workaround of a bug in MacOS X 10.4.x and >> earlier.
