Which one is it? osx-ppc?
Apple will probably release 10.7 (Lion) very soon. My coworkers already have the latest XCode 4 (beta) that (from what I remember) don't come with Tiger support any more. I didn't check whether they support PPC, but I highly doubt it. They have put a lot of effort into LLVM support. I have tried to compile LuaTeX using LLVM, but I didn't test the performance differences yet (and it's also pretty non-trivial to test). So ... new XCode is there, new OS is almost there ... but there are still four to eight times more users than those of all the non-mswin/linux/mac platforms combined ... Wiki statistics: - intel 10.6: 80.5% - intel 10.5: 13.8% - intel 10.4: 2.20 % - all ppc: 3.22 % Mojca I wonder ... when we started providing the minimals and building them on the latest version of OS (Tiger), there was no single Panther user complaining. But there are so many PPC and Tiger users now ...
