[vlc-devel] [PATCHES] modernize OS X support

[Felix Paul Kühne]

Hello guys,

the attached patches modernize and improve the OS X support in /contrib.

1) fixes the SDK lookup with Xcode 4.2 and later
2) raises the default SDK to 10.7 as well as the backward to compatibility level to 10.6 (read: 10.5 is dropped)
3) removes the PPC support, which is discontinued in 2.1 (the PPC binaries account for 0.8 per cent of all OS X downloads, which is half of last year's share)
4) replaces gcc-4.2 by clang and fixes the contrib compilation in case that the Xcode command-line support package isn't installed (hence the "xcrun" prefix)

4) will need an additional patch later on to fix libgcrypt and libgnutls, since these aren't clang-compatible by default.


Best regards,

Felix
