Transition of macOS Preview build from host 10.13 (High Sierra) to 13 (Ventura)

To tentatively address a non-reproducible segfault associated with clang compiler, the build was just restarted after installing an updated version.

Before After
Clang version 10.0 14.0.0 14.0.6

Details

Text below copied from pull-request Slicer/DashboardScripts#/57 description

This updates was motivated after observing a clang EXC_BAD_ACCESS error that is not consistently reproducible.

Here are some of the observed occurrences of Error while building C++ object file:

  1. CMakeFiles/PythonQt.dir/generated_cpp_511/com_trolltech_qt_gui/com_trolltech_qt_gui0.cpp.o
  2. CMakeFiles/dcmect_tests.dir/t_roundtrip.cc.o
  3. Code/BasicFilters/src/CMakeFiles/SimpleITK_ITKBinaryMathematicalMorphology.dir/sitkBinaryDilateImageFilter.cxx.o
  4. Code/BasicFilters/src/CMakeFiles/SimpleITK_ITKCommon.dir/sitkCastImageFilter-2v.cxx.o
  5. Code/BasicFilters/src/CMakeFiles/SimpleITK_ITKConnectedComponents.dir/sitkConnectedComponentImageFilter.cxx.o
  6. Code/BasicFilters/src/CMakeFiles/SimpleITK_ITKConvolution.dir/sitkFFTNormalizedCorrelationImageFilter.cxx.o

These errors did not all happen in the same build. In the case listed above:

  • (1) and (2) were two different clean build
  • (3), (4), (5) and (6) were reported in the same build

Segfault

In all cases, the message reported was similar to the copied below and attempt to re-run the associated sh script (e.g com_trolltech_qt_gui0-17dcc3.sh) did not lead to a segfault.
