[mesa-users] Building MESA manually on a Mac G4 PPC under Mac OSX 10.4.11 (Tiger)

[Aaron Dotter]

Hi Sam,

Before the mesasdk came into being, we were keeping track of the minimum
version of gfortran that would successfully compile MESA.  It used to be
version 4.5, but that may have increased again in the last several months.
 The gfortran binaries page
(http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranBinaries#MacOS) includes
a PowerPC binary for gfortran 4.6, but it requires OSX 10.5.  If all else
fails and you're feeling very pain-tolerant, you can compile your own GCC.

The bottom line is that if you can't update the compiler, I'm afraid MESA
will not compile for you.

Aaron
