I will say that I built ChucK without problems on PPC Linux, so if you're able to build it from sources, the PPC architecture *probably* won't prevent compilation, but then I don't know about Mac. PPC OSX is a lonely planet these days. Joel On 08/05/2014 05:37 PM, Spencer Salazar wrote:

Hi Tom,

Welcome to Chuck! We currently do not provide executables for PowerPC architecture, and don't actively test/support it in the source releases either. Though it looks like this isn't clearly stated anywhere in the installer or website. If you have access to a newer Intel-based Mac available with Mac OS 10.5 or later, that should work just fine.

Hello Joel,

thanks for the fast reply. Yes, it's a PPC machine. Error message to do with the installer not being able to write files to /

Cheers,

Tom

Looking forward to learning ChucK. :) I have a G5 running OSX 10.5.4. The current version of ChucK is apparently good for 10.5 and later. Tried that - didn't work.
