#45971: powerpc-rtems-gcc @4.2.3 fails to build ------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: ozaktash@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.3 Keywords: | Port: powerpc-rtems-gcc ------------------------+-------------------------------- powerpc-rtems-gcc @4.2.3 fails to build due to 2 reasons: 1-) texinfo5: The file main.log_makeinfo5 contains the related error log. One workaround is to use makeinfo from OS X Yosemite which has the version 4.8. Passing parameters below to macports invocation should mitigate this problem: {{{build.args="MAKEINFO=/usr/bin/makeinfo" destroot.args="MAKEINFO=/usr/bin/makeinfo"}}} 2-) clang: The file main.log_makeinfo4 contains the related error log. A workaround is to use gcc (gcc49 works, but I think any gcc4x should work). Passing parameter below to macports invocation should mitigate this problem: {{{configure.compiler=macports-gcc-4.9}}} Two workarounds combined: {{{build.args="MAKEINFO=/usr/bin/makeinfo" destroot.args="MAKEINFO=/usr/bin/makeinfo" configure.compiler=macports- gcc-4.9}}} I am also attaching a patch file proposal that combines the two workarounds and depends on gcc49. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/45971> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
