Hi,

We've got an X11 application that we build for the mac platform using Qt/X11. With enough tinkering, we've always been able to get the X11 version to build on the mac. Now we're trying to bump from 4.5.3 to 4.6.1 and the build is proving to be difficult.

Is anyone else out there doing this? Any pointers? It'd be great if we could just select 'darwin-g++' as the platform and go, but there are tons of issues where Q_OS_DARWIN and Q_OS_MAC are used almost interchangeably through the code.

thanks,
jay

See whether you can get a version in Fink or macports.

But why do you want to use the X11 version and not the native one? mac people will hate you for this.
