Qemu Failed to patch Hunk #1 FAILED at 879

[stealer05172]

Attempting to compile Qemu on my 2008 BlackBook running 10.5 I get the following error:

--->  Applying patches to qemu
Error: Failed to patch qemu: command execution failed
Error: See /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_emulators_qemu/qemu/main.log for details.

Inside that log file:

I have never used ports before this week so I have no idea what I'm doing, so some hand holding may be necessary to investigate further.

In 6185971a397e6609373d00be673832f7a8f019f4/macports-ports (master):

qemu: Remove old patchfile

The build system now uses meson and ninja and the parts of the Makefile
that this patch was patching no longer exist.

Closes: #62640

It looks like although the developers of qemu state that it ​can be used on Mac OS X 10.5 and later, it ​requires a much newer macOS in order to be built. They say you need one of the two most recent macOS versions to build — Catalina (10.15) or Big Sur (11). In fact it appears to build fine in MacPorts on Sierra (10.12) and later, but unfortunately not on earlier versions. Sorry.
