#31261: root: configure fails when file port is installed and xorg-libX11 is universal -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: jonesc@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.3 Keywords: | Port: root -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- The root port fails to install if the file port is installed, and the xorg-libX11 port is installed with the universal variant. The root port's configure script attempts to verify that its dependencies are installed for the correct architectures. While this is a fine goal, it does so using the `file` command and grepping the output for "64-bit". Apple's version of the `file` command shipped with Mac OS X does have this output for universal and non-universal 64-bit files, but the file port's `file` command only does this for non-universal files; it [ticket:11747 doesn't understand universal files]. The simplest solution for us is to just rip out this architecture verification code from root's configure script, since MacPorts base already includes architecture verification code. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/31261> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
