Devs: I think this problem occurs because MacPorts needs a newer

we add a check to ./configure to make sure the correct version of  
readline is available, and issue a sensible error message if not,  
rather than failing with this unfortunate undefined symbols error  
later on? Or, couldn't we instruct configure never to look for  
anything in /usr/local? I believe the latter has been suggested  
before but I don't remember the outcome.




The last time I looked into something like this, it was my conclusion  
that /usr/local is considered special by gcc and hence, you can't  
remove it from the list.  It would definitely be a great thing if  
this has changed, or I was wrong, because having MP tell gcc to  
always ignore /usr/local would definitely solve many problems, the  
recurring readline issue being one of the most common of course.

I don't see any open bugs for cdrtools. Also, /usr/share/libtool/
config.guess exists on my Mac OS X 10.4.11 Intel system. What OS do
you have?


This exact issue has also been reported for libnet in

http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13334

No progress on it yet from the port maintainer. I had to manually  
change the port file to pickup a config.guess in /opt


10.4 and 10.5 both include /usr/share/libtool/config.guess, so if  
you don't have it, we need to fix that. Maybe it's provided by an  
optional package you didn't install? Tell us what OS version you  
have first, then we can postulate what package you might be missing.




I wonder if this is an Xcode 2.5 thing, as I don't have a /usr/share/ 
libtool directory at all; config.sub and config.guess are present in / 
usr/share/automake-1.6 however.

This is on 10.4.11, Xcode 2.5, MBP.

Bryan



Or I suppose the ports could be changed to depend on the libtool port.

What version of Xcode do you have installed?  When this has come up

If this is not already possible with the standard apache2, then you

It should be the default, as it's working fine with my install:

If you set the standard curl proxy environment variables (http_proxy,  
FTP_PROXY, etc; see 'man curl'), this should get fetching of sources  
to work through the proxy.

However, for selfupdate, which uses rsync, there isn't a way to use  
the proxy.  I think in this case you have to use a subversion-based  
repository instead.  For this you need to checkout MacPorts[1], then  
updated your ${prefix}/etc/macports/sources.conf to point to the  
location of the dports directory instead of the rsync:// line.

But do you know why it then works the second time, or how we could  
fix it for our portfiles permanently?




Actually, it has something to do with the way the environment is setup  
and cleaned between stages within MacPorts.  I've been trying to  
figure out whether this is a tcl bug, or something specific to the Mac  
OS X install of 8.4.7 (as of 10.5.2), since I can't make it happen  
with 8.5.2.


The basic issue is best demonstrated with a bit of code (first with  
the Mac-default 8.4.7):


% puts $env(CC)
can't read "env(CC)": no such variable
% set env(CC) "gcc"
gcc
% puts $env(CC)
gcc
% array unset env *
% puts $env(CC)

% puts [array get env]
... CC {} ...

Note how CC in the environment is now blank, but still exists, after  
the 'array unset env *' (and if you run this yourself, you'll see all  
the environment variables in that last command are {}).  What it  
should do, and did (I believe) on 10.4 and does with 8.5.2:


% puts $env(CC)
can't read "env(CC)": no such variable
% set env(CC) "gcc"
gcc
% puts $env(CC)
gcc
% array unset env *
% puts $env(CC)
can't read "env(CC)": no such variable
% puts [array get env]

Here, after 'array unset env *' CC is no longer set in the  
environment.  Which is how it should work.  Note also, the last  
command doesn't show all env vars as empty but nothing there.


We can't use 'array unset env' as that is documented to disconnect Tcl  
from the environment, and some messing around hasn't shown a clean way  
to work around this.  Maybe a Tcl expert is needed, and determining if  
this is Mac-specific or 8.4.7; of course, either way, we have to deal  
with it.


FYI, this is done in portutil.tcl (base/src/port1.0/) in proc  
command_exec.

If you definitely don't want to change permissions on the directory or

be to use tee:


$ sudo port install mycoolport | sudo tee -a /opt/local/var/log/port.log

This will send the port output to your terminal and to the log file (- 
a tells tee to append, not overwrite, just like >>).  And since you're  
running tee with sudo, it has the permission to write to that location.

If you're on 10.5, your environment may be cleaned of these when you

Try /opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/libiconv/ for libiconv instead;

If it was '-NDEBUG: No such file or directory' then you're running  
into the tcl environment problem with 10.5; see the second entry at



I'm guessing you installed MacPorts 1.6.0 if you say from a binary  
package.  A workaround exists on trunk, but hasn't made it into any  
"official" MP version.

The workaround for it is to run the command again; as you've seen,  
running things in multiple steps also works.

And no, this hasn't been fixed with 10.5.3.

I think at this point the only way to deal with it is to use OpenSSL

Hmm, the launchctl command on that list should be at the end, not the  
beginning.  If you ran everything in that order, try an unload then  
load again with launchctl and see if it comes up then.

Which version of mtr, 0.72 or 0.73?  If 0.72, try upgrading it, as it  
was just updated [1] and one note mentions a patch to getaddrinfo()  
which could definitely be related to the problem you're seeing.

You mean something like



The howto page at

You need to glob it, and since some things (like xinstall at least,  
don't remember about file copy) don't like the return from glob, eval  
the whole thing.  For example, from the lzo2 Portfile [1]:

 eval xinstall -m 0644 [glob ${worksrcpath}/doc/*] ${destroot}$ 
{docdir}

So for gcc43:

eval xinstall -m 0644 [glob ${destroot}${prefix}/share/man/man7/*]  
${destroot}${prefix}/share/gcc43/man/man7
eval xinstall -m 0644 [glob ${destroot}${prefix}/share/info/*] $ 
{destroot}${prefix}/share/gcc43/info

should do it (warning, only tested with Mail.app).

Looks like install-sh isn't executable, so I'd suggest adding

post-extract {
file attributes ${worksrcpath}/admin/install-sh -permissions 0755
}

(note, only tested in Mail.app).

Headers installed with ports are usually in /opt/local/include, but  
mysql5 uses a subdirectory: /opt/local/include/mysql5.  Also note  
libraries for mysql5 are in /opt/local/lib/mysql5/mysql.

Looks like pydap, , which doesn't appear to be in  
MacPorts.  I guess the question here is should it be so it can be made  
a dependency for the matplotlib ports?

Looks like a bug in 1.6, as I can reproduce it there, but on trunk it  
works as one would expect.  I think this is only the case when one of  
the ports isn't actually found in PortIndex though, as otherwise  
multiple dependencies work fine on 1.6.

Trying to build with fsspec/fsref/quickdraw disabled but old-mac-fonts  
enabled results in a couple of configure warnings:


configure: WARNING:
*** WARNING
 FreeType2 built without FSRef API cannot load
 data-fork fonts on MacOS, except of XXX.dfont.

configure: WARNING:
*** WARNING
 FSSpec/FSRef/QuickDraw/ATS options are explicitly given,
 thus it is recommended to replace src/base/ftmac.c by builds/mac/ 
ftmac.c.


So it seems like all either need to be on or off; not sure about that  
ftmac.c deal though.

Note that my 10.5 machine still shows some font files that won't load  
without old-mac-fonts enabled (look in /System/Library/Fonts and / 
Library/Fonts for 0 byte files).

In the end it seems like a choice would have to be made: the ability  
to load those fonts vs. avoiding the CoreFoundation fork() issue.

That's the really annoying Tcl environment bug [1]; do a 'sudo port  
clean --work mysql5' to clean mysql5 (the port which failed), then try  
your original port command again.

It may occur again, so if you see another port fail to build, clean  
that one then try once again.

Sometimes when this has come up, it's due to an errant setting of  
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH.  What does it say when you run the following in  
Terminal?

echo $DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH

If that comes up blank (which it should be), what program did you run  
and how to get the error?

Running 'port contents libusb' should show you what files it has  
installed.  Like anything installed with MacPorts, it should install  
its files somewhere under /opt/local.  I notice it doesn't install any  
man pages or documentation, so your best bet is probably the project's  
web site (you can use 'port gohome libusb' to open a web browser to it).

Very linux-centric, what with kernel calls and all.  There's also  
'system_profiler SPUSBDataType' for something a bit more readable than

That sounds like the Tcl env bug:



Anytime you see switches to a command that's missing, it's probably  
that.  I see this thread began before the bug was uncovered, so that  
would explain the various areas explored to fix it.

You have a MacPorts installation that was made during 10.4 then you  
upgraded your system to 10.5, and this configuration is not  
supported.  Safest is just to move /opt/local aside (so you can keep  
config stuff around) then do a new install of MacPorts.  Also, make  
sure your Xcode install is updated for 10.5.

What I did was simply moved /opt/local to /opt/local.10.4 (/tmp is  
cleaned on reboot, hence not safe) so it is still there and obvious  
what's going on.

Depends on your needs and whatnot, most still install from the DMG but  
many things have been fixed since the last release, if you're talking  
about running from trunk instead of 1.6.0.  If you just mean building  
1.6.0 vs. 1.6.0 DMG, shouldn't be any difference.

Most config stuff should be in /opt/local/etc (or /opt/local.10.4  
after move) so you'll want to review what's there for items needed for  
the new install.  You can also look in /opt/local/var/macports/ 
receipts to see what ports you have installed for reference when doing  
the new install.  Or, before moving things aside, use 'port installed'  
and keep the output someplace.

If you have a database (mysql*, postgresql*, etc) you may have to  
export from it prior to the upgrade, especially if you will be  
installing a newer version of the DB when doing the MacPorts reinstall.

Welcome to 10.5, where the tclsh is buggy...that is a known issue:



If you run 'sudo port clean --work sqlite3' then run your original  
port command again, it should finish (or at least get further).

What happens when you try?  If you see "Error: Port atlas not found"  
you need to update your MacPorts installation first [1].

If some other error, what is it?

The problem here is that Mac OS X records library path locations in  
executables and libraries.  You could, I suppose, use  
install_name_tool to rewrite all of them, but that would be very, very  
tedious.  Also, it would require everything built to have enough room  
in the binaries for the new paths, which means they need to be built  
with -headerpad_max_install_names when linking (and most probably  
aren't).

You'd have to rebuild the port with the additional variant (if  
available), eg, 'sudo port install php5 +pspell' in this case.

Hmm, switching AWK with an empty string, smells a lot like the Tcl  
environment bug:



Clean the affected port (sudo port clean --work mysql5) and continue  
with your original install command.

You just changed the list of variants, so that's why it complained here.

That's the proper way to clear out the build configuration.

But mysql5 is the one that failed, so it's the one that needs the  
clean.  After that, you can either clean php5 again and reuse the  
original list of variants, or not clean php5 and use this new set of  
variants for php5.

One of two possibilities here, either the download became corrupted  
during transfer, or you happened to grab it from the third mirror  
listed, which returns an HTML page [1].  Try running

sudo port clean --all netcat

Then try your install again.  If it still fails, do the clean again,  
then before you do the install, run
sudo env MASTER_SITE_LOCAL=http://distfiles.macports.org/netcat port - 
v fetch netcat
This will force port to grab from the MacPorts mirror first [2].   
After that, the install should work.

It should be /opt/local/bin/nc (called netcat, but the executable is  
just nc).  If you ever want to know what a port installs, you can use

port contents netcat

That will list everything that comes with the port.

Looks like that version is no longer available in the usual places,  
and the port needs to be updated [1].  Until that happens, you can  
install this version by telling port to grab the file from the  
MacPorts mirror [2] by running:

sudo env MASTER_SITE_LOCAL=http://distfiles.macports.org/ntfs-3g port - 
v fetch ntfs-3g

After that you should be able to install as usual.

Looks like the Tcl env bug [1,2], run

sudo port clean --work py25-libxml2

After that completes you can run your original port install again.  It  
may crop up again, so if it does you'll need to do a clean on the  
particular port that fails before continuing.

This usually happens when an older version of Xcode is being used.   
Which version did you install?  For 10.5, 3.0 or 3.1 would be the ones  
to use.

That's the Tcl environment bug, as documented on the 10.5 problems page:



Do a clean of the port that failed (sudo port clean ), and  
run your original port install command again.

A search shows both a py-psycopg2 and py25-psycopg2 so if you want the  
one that goes with python 2.5, use the latter.  Generally, the py-  
prefixed ports are for python 2.4, the rest should indicate which  
version of python is used.

I just attached a patch to ticket #15934 [1] which updates cdrtools to  
the current version and switches to using smake; hopefully using smake  
to do the build will fix these issues you've seen.

It would appear that 10.5's X11 package doesn't include this header  
file (I do see it on the one shipped with 10.4, however).  It is  
included if you install xquartz [1] if you would like to update your  
X11 install to a newer version than what Apple ships.  Also, this  
makes me wonder if the afni port should have an X11 dependency...

According to ticket #13234 [1], it sounds like you should use the  
ImageMagick port with the +perl variant instead of the p5-perlmagick  
port.  Since it installed ImageMagick as a dependency, you'll have to  
uninstall ImageMagick then reinstall it with +perl.

This is caused by the Tcl env bug, see tickets #13953 [1] (sqlite3-specific)
and #13930 [2] (the general issue).  Running:

$ sudo port clean --work sqlite3

then your original command should get things going.

Which source-based install are you using?  Running off trunk allows you to
change the location of the Applications and Frameworks install locations by
editing etc/macports/macports.conf and setting:

applications_dir/path/to/Applications
frameworks_dir  /path/to/Library/Frameworks

If you're running from 1.6 source, then you can't do this...Also note that
the GSoC stuff you were looking into is on its own branch still, not on the
trunk.

It looks like mutt would need to have its install routines patched a bit to
maybe ignore an error when the chgrp fails, though that may be a bad thing
to do do the base mutt, so perhaps only in MacPorts.

Looks like the fetch location for libidn may have been unavailable (or you

proxy).  If another attempt doesn't work, have a look at

The ticket [1] says if you update your xquartz install [2], then you should 
have the
1.1.0 version as well, though on my install (which is a 2.3.1 release
candidate) it is simply a symlink to libXdamage.1.dylib just like the 1.0.0
one is.

Since you already have a version of sqlite3 installed (3.6.1_0), install (or
technically, activate) fails.  Since you've already done the install, you
can simply uninstall the older version with

$ sudo port uninstall sqlite3 @3.6.1_0

then activate the new version

$ sudo port activate sqlite3

In the future, you can avoid that by just using

$ sudo port upgrade sqlite3

See the guide's section on this (and the guide in general if you're new to
MacPorts):

Where did you find a DarwinPorts 1.6 DMG?  DarwinPorts ended prior to 1.6 so
all DMG's [1] should be called MacPorts-1.6.0*.

Make sure you have Xcode installed, as this is probably failing to find all
the necessary bits for compilation (the runtime stuff is obviously installed
for basic OS functionality but I don't believe headers are by default).  
You'll need Xcode anyway to build ports once MacPorts is successfully 
installed.

How often do you run selfupdate?  macsforever2000@ committed the update [1]
over a week ago so 'port outdated' should have seen the change with the
next PortIndex (within 12 hours) and a selfupdate.

selfupdate will keep you on the official release which is 1.6.0 still; it
will not switch you over to a trunk-based build.  The only way to run off of
trunk is to checkout the source and build it [1].

The configure option will set what gets put into macports.conf (unless you
already have a macports.conf, then it will not be overwritten).  With a
fresh install, either method works but if you forget to give configure that
option, you can simply update macports.conf and the end result is the same.

FYI, selfupdate also does what sync does, so this is redundant.

That's odd, this is the old location, so it seems like the selfupdate/sync
didn't grab the latest.  Try using

$ sudo port -d selfupdate

This will output quite a bit of stuff, you want to watch for something along
the lines of

sent 50740 bytes  received 414170 bytes  29994.19 bytes/sec
total size is 18806023  speedup is 40.45

That means it successfully retrieved files; if you see error messages from
rsync, do you have a firewall in your way that doesn't allow rsync and
perhaps need a proxy?

Actually, looks like Ryan's message is the one to pay attention to, as my

server issue at this point...

sync will get updated port information (and is done when you do
selfupdate), but doesn't update the base MacPorts code when things are
updated there.  For cdrtools, a sync should have been sufficient, but it
sounds like there may have been an issue with the rsync server recently, so
trying again should see cdrtools as upgraded.

Any particular reason why you're using py-serial instead of py25-serial?
py-* ports are usually python 2.4 (some may be 2.3, not sure).

That's the Tcl environment bug:



$ sudo port clean py25-hashlib

then your original install should make it through.

If you use py25-serial instead, then that 'sudo ln -s ...' above would not
be needed (and in theory, could be a bad idea though sounds like it works
for the serial module).

Both py-serial and py25-serial install the serial module, but the former
installs it with python 2.4 (hence the python2.4 in that path above), and
the latter for python 2.5.  Since all of the other modules listed are for
2.5, using py25-serial should be much simpler as then you won't have to
build/install both 2.4 and 2.5 of python.  Especially if you'll just be
linking the one module from 2.4 into 2.5.

That DMG has Xcode 3.1.1 which should be just fine (works for me at any
rate).  The doc should read 'Xcode 3.0 or later for 10.5'...

Usually that error message does indicate either no Xcode installed or the
wrong one (eg, upgrading to 10.5 but not also upgrading Xcode).  It could
also indicate that not all of Xcode was installed, so did you just accept
the defaults or did you disable anything when installing it?

Finally, which port, just in case it turns out to be a port-specific issue,
or did you try several?

That's odd, as taglib's configure doesn't mind gcc4.0 here at all:

checking whether /usr/bin/gcc-4.0 is blacklisted... no

Make sure you're up to date on your MacPorts by running

$ sudo port selfupdate

Then try installing taglib again.

It looks like taglib is only disliking 4.0.0, so I'm guessing if you run "gcc
--version" it'll say 4.0.0 and not 4.0.1 (which is what's shipped with
current Xcode versions).  In that case I'd suggest you upgrade Xcode.

Also note, that if you have gcc 4.0.0 from Xcode, you have a very old
version, as Apple upgraded gcc4 to 4.0.1 as of Xcode 2.2; MacPorts works
best with 2.4.1 or 2.5 on Mac OS X 10.4.

Yes, the OS DVD does include Xcode, but as time goes on that version goes
further out of date...To upgrade you just download the DMG for the latest
version and install the packages from it.  There should be documentation in
the DMG if you feel like reading beforehand.

I'm guessing it'll install in /usr/local which won't break things, but
anything you install from MacPorts won't see it since they'll be looking only
for MacPorts-installed items to satisfy dependencies.

I take it you did try cleaning audiofile, not the main port you were trying
to install?  Also, were you in interactive mode, as if you were, I think if
this is the bug that's come up before [1], you'll need to restart port?

If neither of those solves the issue, can you run

$ sudo port clean --all audiofile

then show the output of running

$ sudo port -d checksum audiofile

Maybe something there will be helpful.

When did you last run a 'sudo port selfupdate'?  On my system, arpwatch is
version 2.1a15 and installs more than just the arpwatch binary itself:

${prefix}/sbin/arpsnmp
${prefix}/sbin/arpwatch
${prefix}/share/examples/arpwatch-2.1a15/arp2ethers

It's apparently simply linking against the OS-installed libpcap in /usr/lib.
In theory it should probably be linking against the libpcap port.

Note that many of the gnome-related ports have been recently upgraded to the
latest version (including the libgnomeui port which failed for you which is
now 2.24.0).  So first be sure to run

$ sudo port selfupdate

to get all the current Portfiles, then try again.  Also note that there are
many gnome-based ports, so some may have been missed or could fail because
of the upgrade.  If that happens, be sure to open tickets.

Hmm, did it fail then?  If I run 'port info libgnomeui':

libgnomeui 2.24.0, gnome/libgnomeui (Variants: universal)
...

So you for some reason aren't picking up the latest, which selfupdate should
have done.  You can try 'sudo port -d selfupdate' to see more information on
what it is and isn't doing.

If creating the ${prefix}/etc/xml directory gets this to work, perhaps
libxml2 (which provides xmlcatalog) should install that directory?

Looks like the xmlcatalog in libglade2 needs the --create switch then
(and ${prefix}/etc/xml probably still should be created by libxml2):

   system "xmlcatalog --create --noout --add system \
  http://glade.gnome.org/glade-2.0.dtd \
  ${prefix}/share/xml/libglade/glade-2.0.dtd \
  ${prefix}/etc/xml/catalog"

Fortunately it appears that --create doesn't overwrite entries already
present, at least with my quick bit of testing.  I believe the file exists
on my system because of one of the docbook ports.

I don't see a port by that name:

$ port info shibboleth
Error: Port shibboleth not found
$ port search shibboleth
No match for shibboleth found

Did you see mention that this was a port someplace?

Note that there are currently no py26- ports at all, so there's really
nothing to reinstall module-wise to use 2.6 as yet.

Since this would get messy fast (another group of modules duplicating py-
and py25-), jmr@'s ticket 16723 [1] will hopefully be the future, getting
rid of all the duplication.

Yeah, your MacPorts install is months out of date, rsync has been 3.0.x for
some time now.

Run

$ sudo port selfupdate

You should also be installing a newer version of git-core at that point.

That's an issue with the libglade2 port [1] which should be using the
--create switch when it runs xmlcatalog.  Since this is run post-activate,
I'm not sure if the port is still activated or not though.

Perhaps the server was unavailable when you tried, it just downloaded fine

For Ruby and DBI, it looks like you want to use the rb-dbi port with the
dbd_pg variant for PostGreSQL.  The dbd_pg variant requires the rb-postgres
port which is what brings in postgresql81 unfortantely; there is a ticket
about this:

Ignore them?  Some source files end up, based on #defines, to have nothing
in them, so when compiled, they have no symbols.  Eg, rand_os2.c:



when built on anything other than OS/2 will have nothing, hence the message
you see from libtool below.  Note also at the end that it finished building
the library, so does it work as expected?

As long as MacPorts builds ports from source, then Xcode is an absolute
requirement (for gcc etc).  If the day comes that MacPorts distributes
binary packages, then Xcode may only be needed by some ports and not
MacPorts as a whole.

Looks like, with the update to 2.7.2, they've moved the older tarball to the
old/ subdirectory, as mentioned in ticket #16781 [1].  Until the port is
updated to either the current version or to find the 2.7.1 version, you can
follow the fetch failures [2] step on the problem hotlist page of the wiki.

Sounds like perhaps updating the cups-headers port to 1.1.23 would be the
solution, and has a ticket:



Though the number of people running 10.3 and needing cups-headers is
probably quite small at this point, so you may be the only one available now
to actually test this...

That's an odd file...especially since everything should be in /opt/local.

After this, 'port installed rb-sqlite3' still shows it as installed?  If so,
sounds like it's actually failing to delete the receipt.  See what's located
in /opt/local/var/macports/receipts/rb-sqlite3 with

$ ls -lR /opt/local/var/macports/receipts/rb-sqlite3

I know there is/was an issue with abnormal characters in some places that
can confuse port, but rb-sqlite3 doesn't appear to have any such issues that
I can see.

You might be able to use a test in a pre-fetch phase like (not tested at
all):

pre-fetch {
   if {![file exists ${prefix}/path/only/installed/by/variant]} {
  return -code error "Please install gtk2 with the +quartz"
   }
}

Though this is quite fragile, and really a bug in the dependency engine.
The real way around it is to get ticket #126 done:
