I'm having a problem with MacPorts (though for all I know it may be
gcc rather than MacPorts itself). After restoring my system from a
crash, port now can't compile anything.
I've reinstalled MacPorts 1.5, and I've reinstalled XCode 2.4.1
(BSD Tools). Still no dice.
The error I'm getting is like this:
--------------------
MacG5:~ root# /opt/local/bin/port install jpeg

Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
Usually, "C compiler cannot create executables" means you haven't
installed the C compiler, as in, you haven't installed gcc.
What do you mean you reinstalled "XCode 2.4.1 (BSD Tools)"? You
should have installed the BSD Subsystem from the Mac OS X DVD (it's
installed by default when you install Mac OS X), and you should have
installed Xcode 2.4.1 which can be downloaded from http://
developer.apple.com/tools/xcode/
What do you get if you type "which gcc"? It should say "/usr/bin/gcc"
What do you get if you type "gcc --version"? It should mention "4.0.1
(Apple Computer, Inc. build 5367)"
--------------------
To get the exact GCC error:
MacG5:~ root# gcc -O2 -L/opt/local/lib
powerpc-apple-darwin8-gcc-4.0.1: no input files
--------------------
Well that again makes it look like you have installed gcc 4.0.1
somehow. So I don't know why it's not working for you.
Have you selfupdated MacPorts to 1.5.2? Have you tried installing
other ports? Do they fail with the same error?
