Re: building apple-gcc42 fails: C compiler cannot create executables.

2008-12-07 Thread Timothy Goins
I encountered this problem compiling 4.3. In /usr/bin I had the gcc executable but no gcc-4.0 file, so I created a link (sudo ln -s /usr/ bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.0). The -s is unnecessary, I believe, but I did it because my symbolic links show up in a different color. What I don't know why

'sudo port upgrade vim' fails

2008-12-12 Thread Timothy Goins
I am in the process of 'upgrading' my outdated ports. When I got to 'vim' I discovered that 44 patches needed to be applied (7.2.021 to 7.2.065). However, when I ran 'sudo port upgrade vim' it spat out the following: ---Building vim Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell

I am having a problem upgrading three of my active but outdated ports [10.5.6; Xcode 3.1; user/bin/gcc-4.0]; I am much more familiar with the configure-make-make install routine and am new to MacPorts. Running ~$ sudo port outdated produces the following: The following installed ports are

Here's what I got when I installed Apache2.0 on my Mac Pro running 10.5.6 (being a dodo, I am wondering why my port command fetched from http://distfiles.macports.org/apache2 rather than from http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/apache/httpd): t...@cotopaxi:~$ sudo port install apache2

I get exactly the same error output; however, I'm upgrading (or trying to) from vim @7.2.021_0 (active). Also lots of xorg upgrades that succeed and a python that doesn't. Frustrating! openssl and vim are the only active ports that are outdated and won't upgrade on my system. Tim On Jan

I am definitely not a MacPorts guru (although I am comfortable with X11 and Unix in general). I've seen error flows like yours before. My guess is that the port is looking for gcc in /usr/bin and not finding it (which was the case with one of my failed ports—I had the gcc-4.0 compiler

I, too, am experiencing some unpleasantries in trying to installgnucash. My first attempt installed a bunch of dependencies but crashed in the end. Noted Corey's issues with goffice, so I ran a port install goffice. No problems; it installed without complaint. Then I did a port installgnucash.

Re: How does Macport work?

Fon's question got me thinking. While /opt/local/bin precedes /usr/ bin in my $PATH, when I `which gcc` I get /usr/bin/gcc. Huh? Since I've never had insurmountable compiler glitches, I'd lost track of how I'd worked around previous issues. I have created a mess! In /usr/ bin/ I've got
