specifying QMAKE_MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET doesn't work?

davecotter

when i specify this:

QMAKE_MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET = 10.9

my app still fails to run on 10.9. runs fine on 10.12.

here's the error i get:

Application Specific Information:

SGaist

Hi,

Which version of Qt are you using ?

davecotter

latest: Creator 4.3.1 Based on Qt 5.9.1

this seems like a major bug?

SGaist

No it's not, Qt 5.9.1 lowest deployment target is 10.10.

See this page for information about the lowest target you can have per Qt version.
