    Hello. Qt creator was working fine on OSX Mountain Lion not long ago but now it fails. I also tried installing qt4-mac through macports and using the qmake command but I get the same problem. This happened after modifying the source code, including modifying the name of the pro file, targets etc. Here is the output of qmake and make:

    @unknown:cancercurecoin matt$ qmake
    Project MESSAGE: Building with UPNP support
    Removed plural forms as the target language has less forms.
    If this sounds wrong, possibly the target language is not set or recognized.

    Project MESSAGE: qtAddLibrary: found framework QtCore in directory /opt/local/Library/Frameworks@

    And then make just repeats the same thing over and over. Why would make even be calling qmake? What can I do to get it to stop doing that and simply build the project? I could try hacking the makefile myself but I feel that wont get to the source of the problem. The problem obviously starts with qmake which creates the makefile.

    The full source code can be found here: https://github.com/Cancercoin/Cancercoin

    Qt was working with this commit: https://github.com/Cancercoin/Cancercoin/tree/f4d3e9159d3aec413eb598ab440d5f59f790c323

    Thank you.

      This problem is not occurring on Linux Mint 13. It seems to be an OSX specific issue.

      EDIT: Forget it. It spontaneously decided to work.
