Description Jack Jansen 2009-10-05 07:24:01 UTC 
I'm on MacOSX 10.6, trying to cross-compile SDL 1.3 for deployment on 10.4/10.5 for both PowerPC and Intel.

Everything works fine (after installing the Apple SDKs and providing all the --arch and other flags to SDL configure, etc), with one exception: the Makefiles (or, actually configure) insists on adding the gcc flags -MMD and -MT.

This does not work when compiling with multiple architectures, for obvious reasons. Many configure-based packages have an option --disable-dependency-tracking which allows you to disable the generation of .d files.

I have manually removed the "-MMD -MT \$@" from the compiles, and this seems to work fine.

Addition of a configure flag would be much appreciated, as it would streamline the workflow of building fat SDL libraries on OSX.

This is fixed in subversion, thanks!
