Cc Me!

What version of Mac OS X are you running? What version of Xcode?

[jross@…]

OS X 10.3.9

XCode: I downloaded the latest I could get when I installed macports. 1.5, IIRC.

Thanks!

[mf2k (Frank Schima)]

I suggest upgrading your OS to Leopard and Xcode 3.1.2. We don't have the resources to support Panther. However, if you can supply a patch, it will likely get committed.

[jross@…]

If I could upgrade to Leopard I wouldn't be using macports for firefox, would I?

Thanks.

Actually a duplicate of #12336.
