Guys i still want to keep out of this mess you are doing. But let me tell you some facts for the newbs here.
1. The sdk version you pass to the configure of tools/depends/configure has to
a. match an SDK which is really installed
b. match the SDK which is chosen when compilinge in Xcode
2. XCode 7 doesn't come with SDK 8.3 obviously - but you guys keep trying to configure it for ios SDK 8.3 (fail).
3. Installing Xcode 6.x of course ships SDK 8.3 - this is why on those mashines the compilation of the depends works
4. Compiling depends against SDK 8.3 and selection SDK 9.0 in the Xcode7 (because it lacks 8.3) is a bad idea and i won't even start to support any issues which arise with those customly broken versions.
5. The right thing to do is - to properly ensure compile support for Xcode7 with ios 9.0 sdk
a. Add support to depends configure for sdk 9.x.x here:
https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master...re.ac#L279
b. configure it --with-sdk=9.0
c. hold your breath and pray that the whole dozens of dependend libraries are compiling fine with ios 9.0sdk
c1 - if not - fix every library that doesn't compile (hey thats fun isn't it?)
d. if it worked - go on and compile with xcode7 and ios sdk 9 selected
e. if it really worked - adapt the readme with the new combination of xcode version and ios sdk version
f. do a pull request to github with all needed changes once(!) xcode7 is final
I will do all of this once Xcode7 is released - no worries. But it seems the impatience is as big as the wish to watch porn all day.
Also my readmes are accurate. You are following them out of spec by using an unsupported Xcode/ios SDK version.
Go on with your mess now.
