Well, after a bit of struggling FS-UAE for OSX PPC is almost here :-)
At present I used the 2.5.8dev version because the presence of PPC engine from 2.5.9 on is causing further troubles so in the meantime I have experimented on a safer release.
There are some additional steps I performed to reach the end, they are:
- In the SDL2.framework I modified a string in the SDL_platform.h header to allow FS-UAE to use it on 10.5 too, otherwise an error occour telling that SDL2 can't be build on an environment lower than 10.6
- The zip command from Xcode did not recognize che -Z option so using MacPorts I have upgraded to the last version and I have replaced the group of binaries in /usr/bin with the soft links from the MacPorts bunch.
With the above modification the build process goes straight to the end but fails in the Python script when all resources are put together to make the bundle with this error:
Code:

It seems that here the manually declared SDL2 path before ./configure command is lost so the script can't find its way to the library.
