Pd externals are built with `-mmacosx-version-min=10.15` instead of `10.9`

[mgeier]

It was brought up in the Pd mailing list that the Externals (installed via Deken) don't work on macOS 10.14 (Mojave).

We intended to use version 10.9 in our CI settings:

https://github.com/SoundScapeRenderer/ssr/blob/1c6c0b3e2b113c928687527abcfad04502f009a7/.github/workflows/pd-externals.yml#L45

However, this seems to be overruled by -mmacosx-version-min=10.15 for some reason, see for example this log: https://github.com/SoundScapeRenderer/ssr/actions/runs/5489496909/job/14867315885

Any ideas how to fix this?

We probably don't need as old a version as 10.9, but at least 10.14 still seems to be used.

Hi,

it seems to come from here :

https://github.com/SoundScapeRenderer/ssr/blob/1c6c0b3e2b113c928687527abcfad04502f009a7/flext/Makefile?plain=1#L17

Oh wow, thanks @Lucarda! I made that change myself, and then I completely forgot about it.

It turns out that I originally switched to 10.15 because this is the first version to support std::filesystem.

I have created #375 to remove the use of std::filesystem and to go back to a minimum version of 10.9.

It turns out that this doesn't work within the brew ecosystem, see #375.

I have removed the ineffective setting in #388.

I don't think there is anything else that I can reasonably do, but if there is, please let me know!
