Sorry, macclipboard-gimp is ancient software from 2004, and it appears to use Carbon programming APIs that have been deprecated for years and which are no longer available in the Lion SDK.

It's possible this could be made to work by telling the portfile using the Snow Leopard SDK on Lion.

[MaddTheSane (C.W. Betts)]

This is more an issue with QuickDraw functions not being available under 64-bit code, which is, I think, the default on Snow Leopard and Lion. Also the QuickDraw headers aren't in the Lion SDK.

I'll be posting a patch that strips out all the QuickDraw code.

Patch to only use QuickDraw functions if they're available. Also updating makefile.

Patch file to go along with macclipboard-gimp

[MaddTheSane (C.W. Betts)]

The patch-Lion.diff files goes into macclipboard-gimp's file directory, and macclipdiff.diff gets patched against macclipboard-gimp's Portfile.
