#31855: lcms2: Checksums fails because an HTML file was downloaded ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: ChuplesKai+devel@… | Owner: adfernandes@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.3 Keywords: | Port: lcms2 ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Changes (by ryandesign@…): * cc: ryandesign@… (added) Comment: Replying to [comment:2 ChuplesKai+devel@…]:
Ope, sorry, my bad... I got it from http://packages.macports.org/lcms
No; that's where our precompiled archives come from. That's not where distfiles come from.
It says that the mismatch file "appears to be HTML"... so I guess it could be something as small a documentation or something. I hope that's helpful.
It would be more helpful to see exactly what is in the file (/opt/local/var/macports/distfiles/lcms2/lcms2-2.2.tar.gz). Can you open it in a text editor and tell us what it says? Or attach it to this ticket? Replying to [comment:3 ChuplesKai+devel@…]:
After messing around with it for a little while, I discovered I had no problems of getting the lcms2 port installing as long as I don't use +universal. The +universal variant, however, seems to be problematic... and I've discovered no insights as to why.
That makes sense. When not using the universal variant, you're getting our precompiled binary from packages.macports.org. But we don't have precompiled binaries with universal variants yet, so when you request the universal variant, it can't find a package, and so it tries to compile it on your computer, by first downloading the distfile, with which it's having a problem. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/31855#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
