| Title | No way to compile the MPS one-file-at-a-time on standard OS X |
| Status | closed |

| Description | OS X Mavericks no longer installs gcc. This means that you can't build the MPS via xci3gc.gmk (at least not on a machine with standard Mavericks plus Xcode; obviously you can install gcc via MacPorts or whatever). And that means that there's no easy way to check that the MPS can be built one-file-at-a-time on OS X. See report [1]. |
| Analysis | GDR suggested [2] adding xci6ll.gmk and RB agreed [3]. |
| How found | manual_test |
