[Qt-creator] [BareMetalPlugin] dsymutil problem on Mac OS X

[Marcel Mulder]

Hi,

I have checked that but the is no field stating macos. It says:

ABI: arm-unknown-unknown-unknown-32-bit

I changed it to:

ABI: arm-linux-unknown-unknown-32-bit

Now it does not fail with not finding dsymutil. So apparently the default is macos on a Mac even when unknown is specified. Look like a small bug.

The above work-around works for me, so I am happy.

Marcel
