Just an update,
I have confirmed that rsync compiled on an intel won't work on PPC and
vice versa. A lot of people have both kinds of macs so it would be
good to have a universal binary for rsync 3.0, otherwise it means two
separate rsync builds. So any help on compiling a universal rsync for
macs would be much appreciated. The web page at ADC explains about
this but I don't have knowledge in that area. Thanks Rob

Hi All,
Well, we compiled pre9 on an intel Mac running Tiger and now it
does work on the machine. I need to see if that will now work on a
PPC mac though. Hopefully it will but I am wondering if there is a
way to compile and make a universal binary rsync for the Mac that
will run on both, from my PPC Mac. Itried that yesterday with
patch -p1 <patches/flags.diff
patch -p1 <patches/crtimes.diff
./configure
CFLAGS="-isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -arch ppc -arch
i386" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-syslibroot,/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -arch
ppc -arch i386" make
but it didn't work on the intel. Does anyone have any experience
with making a universal binary of rsync?
