#31672: clamav 0.97.3 not building on OS/X Lion 10.7.2 b/c of "missing" clamav user -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Reporter: captainproton1971@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.3 Keywords: | Port: -----------------------------------------+---------------------------------- ''(I think this might be related to ticket #31154)'' Looking at the output of port -v install clamav, it seems that the configure script is looking for a file /usr/bin/nidump which hasn't been part of OS/X since 10.5. For some reason, the configure script run by MacPorts seems to trying nidump rather than dscl. The relevant output is {{{ bash-3.2# port install clamav ---> Computing dependencies for clamav ---> Configuring clamav }}} (blah blah blah)... {{{ checking for sched_yield... yes checking for pthread_yield... no checking for enable_extended_FILE_stdio... no checking for readdir_r... support disabled checking for ctime_r... yes, and it takes 2 arguments checking for socklen_t... yes checking for clamav in /etc/passwd... checking for clamav using netinfo... ./configure: line 17550: /usr/bin/nidump: No such file or directory ./configure: line 17551: /usr/bin/nidump: No such file or directory no configure: error: User clamav (and/or group clamav) doesn't exist. Please read the documentation ! }}} Interestingly enough, I can successfully configure (./configure) and compile (make) from the /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/sysutils/clamav directory. In doing this, it seems that the configure script uses dscl rather than nidump. {{{ bash-3.2# ./configure | grep passwd rm: conftest.so.dSYM: is a directory checking for clamav in /etc/passwd... checking for clamav using dscl... yes, user clamav and group clamav }}} I'm guessing that there are some configure options being passed by the Portfile that are interfering, but I'm not clever enough to locate the problem. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/31672> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
