#36524: gtk-doc Problem w/Checksum Length Change @ MacPorts 2.1.0 ---------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: daiyu.hurst@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.0 Keywords: | Port: gtk-doc ---------------------------+-------------------------------- After upgrading from v2.0.4 to v2.1.0, I get something similar to what you see in the attached screen output for each port I try to install; the failure shown is from an attempt to install the gtk-doc port (it dies trying to install the first dependent port, xmlcatmgr-2.2). It looks like up through MacPorts 2.0.4 the checksums are 32-bit, and become 64-bit with v2.1.0? At least as you can see the checksums shown in the portfiles are twice as long as the ones in the distfiles. I did a sync just before the install attempt. I will mention I'm running plain Darwin x86 8.01, and thus lacking Xcode I can't do selfupdate, and so I've bootstrapped MacPorts releases from: 1.6.0 -> 1.8.2 -> 1.9.2 -> 2.0.3 -> 2.0.4 And then, from 2.0.4 to 2.1.0 (for now I've dropped back to 2.0.4). This having been the second time I've installed Darwin on this box and bootstrapped my way to this problem, I made a point to create a backup of the registry so that I could drop back to 2.0.4 again. I'd performed the upgrade from 2.04 to 2.1.0 after receiving this error when trying to install the gtk-doc port: ---> Computing dependencies for gtk-doc.Error: Unable to execute port: invalid command name "compiler.blacklist" Lastly, I'm aware there's not much collective will to assist the dozen or so of us plain (I will not use the term "pure") Darwin users; I do in fact have an iMac with Tiger on it, but it was a gift, I don't have the install disks, and don't wish to clutter it with development software. And I can't use it for the target application (not a program, just a use); the iMac lacks USB 2.0 ports, and what I'm doing really needs them, and this Celery-based PC has them. Even as it is, I find MacPorts a great time-saver, and I'm happy you folks have spent so much time on it. Thanks in advance for any and all help.... -dh -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/36524> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
