It felt like a missing dependency and I knew I needed to look at the config.log but we can't access the buildbot's files. Your config.log makes it clear: {{{ configure:22163: checking for XRenderCreateLinearGradient configure:22163: /usr/bin/clang -o conftest -pipe -O2 -arch x86_64 -I/opt/local/include -I/opt/local/include -I/opt/local/include -L/opt/local/lib -arch x86_64 conftest.c -L/opt/local/lib -lX11 -lXext -L/opt/local/lib -lXrender -lX11 >&5 ld: library not found for -lXext clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) }}} We're missing a library dependency on xorg-libXext. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/36926#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
