Description (last modified by aprovera)

I noticed that builds on older OS X versions like El Capitan, Yosemite and Mavericks fail due to some missing functions, like clock_gettime and static_assert.

There's a MacPorts package to add support for those functions on older system versions: https://ports.macports.org/port/legacy-support/details/

I wonder if adding the legacysupport PortGroup to the Portfile, as instructed on the package's GitHub, could restore support for those old OS X versions?

My Pull Request adds legacysupport to the Portfile (alongside an update to 2.1.1, and another Portfile change requested by a Contributor), and I'm pleased to report I've successfully built scrcpy 2.1.1 on a Mac running El Capitan.

There is an issue with android-platform-tools (see relevant ticket); the last version that works on the aforementioned Mac running El Capitan, which has a Core 2 Duo processor, is 31.0.3_0. Using that version, I can control my phone using scrcpy with no issues.

Hopefully the android-platform-tools ticket can be fixed; if not, users on old OS X versions could be served with android-platform-tools @31.0.3_0. I assume that's something that would need to be done on their side, though.
