Yes for OSX 10.6. I'm also not too concerned about CentOS stable, since I know CentOS is very, very conservative about updating packages. Debian oldstable might be something to be worried about, but in my research I thought I found it to be packaged with GCC 4.7, which would mean that it will still be supported. That said, it appears that even Debian stable doesn't have Wesnoth 1.12 at this time, so it may not be such a problem to drop support for oldstable. The Visual Studio requirement has no implications on support for Windows platforms. MSVC 2013 can build XP-compatible programs with a little extra work, and in any case the official Windows builds are (currently) not built using MSVC. ~CelticMinstrel _______________________________________________ Wesnoth-dev mailing list Wesnoth-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/wesnoth-dev
