I am trying to create a port for SUNDIALS
(http://computation.llnl.gov/casc/sundials/main.html), and I have two
questions. It follows ./configure make make install. So, I have a pretty
minimal Portfile. Using my local test portfile if I do sudo port install, it
builds, and I see the libraries get installed into /opt/local/lib
But, I also see these errors:
---> Staging sundials into destroot
Error: No files have been installed in the destroot directory!
Error: Please make sure that this software supports 'make install
DESTDIR=${destroot}' or implement an alternative destroot mechanism in the
Portfile.
Error: Files might have been installed directly into your system, check before
proceeding.
Error: org.macports.destroot for port sundials returned: Staging sundials into
destroot failed
Please see the log file for port sundials for details:
/opt/local/var/macports/logs/_Users_adershowitz_Programming_ports_math_sundials/sundials/main.log
To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
Error: Processing of port sundials failed
My portfile doesn't have anything in it about destroot, so it should use the
default, and seems to. Yet, I get that error. In my logfile I see some things
like this:
:info:destroot Install src/kinsol/fcmix...

:info:destroot
:info:destroot If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
:info:destroot in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
:info:destroot specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR'
:info:destroot flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
:info:destroot - add LIBDIR to the `DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable
:info:destroot during execution
:info:destroot
:info:destroot See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
:info:destroot more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.

Is there something that has to be done to get the libraries to be in the "right
place" to be found? Or for macports not to complain about them?
Also, on a separate issue related to this port. The source is released under a
BSD license. But the web site requires that you put in a name and email
address to download the source. For now I have just followed the example of the
geoexpress-sdk port (which requires a manual download). But, is it possible to
put a mirror of the source on Macports so that it will support an automatic
download?
Thanks,
