#25083: cppunit build fails: /usr/lib/system/libmathCommon.la ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: macports@… | Owner: mww@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.2 Keywords: | Port: cppunit ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Changes (by ryandesign@…): * cc: ryandesign@… (added) Old description:
Hello,
I am unable to build cppunit (a dependency for ffmpeg) on my system. I get an error:
grep: /usr/lib/system/libmathCommon.la: No such file or directory sed: /usr/lib/system/libmathCommon.la: No such file or directory libtool: link: `/usr/lib/system/libmathCommon.la' is not a valid libtool archive
I understand that this is related to the absence of *.la files on Snow Leopard, but I have not been able to find any workarounds or fixes to this problem. I have attempted uninstalling / cleaning / selfupdate / reinstalling, but no luck. I have also attempted to reinstall macports wholly (mv /opt/local /opt/local-2010.05.31, then re-installing from macports.org) but also had no luck.
This appears to be a general issue affecting macports on Snow Leopard. I also saw similar errors trying to compile the macports version of libtool, for example.
Are there any workaround for this problem?

I cannot reproduce the issue. I do not have the file /usr/lib/system/libmathCommon.la either; not sure why this file's absence is being considered a problem on your system. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/25083#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
