250k 1337 to whoever can help me solve this error when trying to compile a wallet to work on older versions of os x

Code:

clang: error: invalid arch name '-arch -all_load'
make: *** [Alphacoin-Qt.app/Contents/MacOS/Alphacoin-Qt] Error 1
19:57:38: The process "/usr/bin/make" exited with code 2.

i am unable to compile anything now, i keep getting the error ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64, no matter what i try i cannot get past this error, i have tried it on two different mac books, so far i can only compile on a pos imac running 10.7, is there any fix for this at all?

the .sdk's? if thats it i have those i just need to figure out how to implement them

like explained in the documentation for maximum compatibility you should build all deps with the flags:

-mmacosx-version-min=10.7 -arch x86_64 -isysroot $(xcode-select --print-path)/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk

replace the version, architecture specification and sdk directory with yours desired ones to provide support for all versions >= the one from flag. One option is also to have a virtual machine with osx10.6 and build the wallet here and then only deploy it:
when build is finished you have to deploy the application to "put" all libraries inside the app-bundle and link them to bitcoin
so when you share it nobody needs the dependcies preinstalled.

Mine at Jonny's Pool

You need to have the earlier OS version libraries.

just ignore my first question, the person i was doing the wallet for has moved on to an easier source code, but now i have a new question, how do i compile a wallet on 10.11 that will work on 10.6 and up?

compiling is one thing but i cannot get it to work on any other macs but my own, if it is a wallet compiled with qt4 i have no problems getting to work on other macs but qt5 and this newer source code is different

because this computers do not have the dependcies installed. You need to deploy the application for release and put/link all libraries in/to the application.

i know, and i can get it to work that way all day long if it is a wallet based on older source code and compiled with qt4 but if it is code based off of 0.9.x source code i cant get it to work at all

please make gist/pastebin of your error log.
