qt4: set default to -with-qt3support #12

Closed guitorri closed 7 years ago

Is it too much trouble to enable qt3support by default in the qt4 formula and bottles?

I know qt3support it was not enabled by default when the formula was in homebrew-core. It was however shipped in the official Qt binaries, which no longer work with macOS newer than 10.10. Right now out Travis CI is at osx_image: xcode6.4 and pulling the official Qt .dmg to keep things running.

I guess our project is the only one still stuck with qt3support... In this case I will have to fork your formula and make bottles myself until we get rid of qt3support.

I'd be happy to enable -with-qt3support by default, especially if that's how the official binaries shipped. Unfortunately, I don't currently have a way to rebuild bottles, so it may have to wait until that's solved.

Out of curiosity, do you know if it might be possible to create a separate formula for the Qt3Support module?

Thank you for your positive response. I really don't know how to split Qt4 in multiple libs.

To solve my problem I made a bottle with --skip-relocate, extracted into brew --prefix and linked to have it working.

The latest revision of the formula now has Qt3Support enabled out of the box. Running brew install qt@4 in your .travis.yml should install it for you.

Please let me know if it still isn't working, and feel free to file more issues if there's other functionality you'd like to see.
