Description Tom Harrington 2009-09-01 18:27:50 UTC 
Running 10.6 on a Core Duo (32-bit only) Mac, gnucash fails to configure because it doesn't recognize the OS. Configuration fails with these errors:

-----
checking for darwin... yes, but too old
configure: error: This platform is not supported, please
update to latest  darwin

    while executing
"$procedure $targetname"
Warning: the following items did not execute (for gnucash): org.macports.activate org.macports.configure org.macports.build org.macports.destroot org.macports.install
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
-----

This appears to be because the host triplet is "i386-apple-darwin10.0.0", and configure.in errors out if the OS matches "rhapsody* | darwin1*", which was added in rev 7268 (http://svn.gnucash.org/trac/changeset/7268).

I don't know what led to this check on "darwin1*" but it was a time bomb waiting for Darwin 10 to be released.
