Summary: _HIPointConvert referenced from QuickTime expected to be defined in Carbon

Description Mike 2007-11-21 16:42:39 UTC 
After configuring with no errors, make on a 10.3.9 PPC box fails with this error: "_HIPointConvert referenced from QuickTime expected to be defined in Carbon". For what it's worth, the same error occurred when making SDL 1.2.11.
Comment 1 Sam Lantinga 2007-12-29 10:19:11 UTC 
Apple introduced Tiger dependencies in their Quicktime SDK with the 7.2 update, and never fixed it.
Here are some instructions from someone who worked around the problem:

"Have a look there:

That's part of the answer, but setting special link flags is not that
much easy. I compiled the SDL library too and to do so I made a
copy of the original QuickTime framework then I moved the one
from the 10.2.8 SDK to the Frameworks folder
(in /System/Library) and it worked. Then you have to replace the
framework (in /System/Library/Frameworks) with the original one."
