[ptx] Re: Problems with Autopano-Sift and Mono on OS X

[Ippei UKAI]

Hi,

I have no idea what's going on inside mono, but I think CarbonSound.h  
comes back when you install the developer tools. I was stupid enough  
to try compiling software after updating QT but before updating the  
sdk, and saw compile error with that header file.

If that file is all you need now, how about trying QT7 SDK? ftp:// 
ftp.apple.com/developer/Development_Kits/QT7SDK_Mac.dmg
