macOS 10.13 and Armory / OS X 10.7 support dropped

[droark]

UPDATE: Fix is pretty simple, thankfully. Will issue a PR in a bit.

UPDATE 2: Armory will no longer run on OS X 10.7. If people require a version of Armory that runs on 10.7, they'll need to compile their own version.

Hey everyone. FYI, if you like to compile Armory and are planning on upgrading to High Sierra (macOS 10.13), you may want to hold off for a bit. Qt 4 doesn't compile on 10.13 and will require some fixes. I think I know what to do but I need to look at the code before proceeding. I hope to have something ready soon-ish. Could be awhile. Personal life is personal life and tries hard to keep me away from the keyboard these days.

Also, as noted in the update, support for OS X 10.7 will be discontinued. C++11 library issues make support too precarious to continue moving forward.

Thanks.

Hi Droark, Thanks for all your efforts with Armoury and Mac. Can I ask you when you think Version 0.96.3 may be coming out ?, (I have been having problems with the 0.96.2 etc.) If I cannot get 0.96.3 working would I be able to copy my existing wallet.dat to a different Mac BTC Client so as to open it ? TY

Not my call. You'll have to talk to goatpig. That said, if you have access to a different computer with Armory, you should be able to import your wallet. I can't see why that would be a problem.
