Comment:
I'm not dismissing quickly. We made a decision years ago not to make TBBs
for PPC platforms, specifically on OSX. It's a lot of work for hardly any
users on a platform we do not have access to, and on OSX PPC is definitely
no longer a supported platform by Firefox:

If you want to make it work on Linux PPC then that's awesome and it sounds
like you might have some luck. It's possible it might just build out of
the box for you, even. But The Tor Project is not going to do it.
