#23783: Ghostscript install fails on Snow Leopard when building i386 --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: pieter.debaets@… | Owner: takanori@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.2 Keywords: | Port: ghostscript --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by ryandesign@…): * cc: ryandesign@… (added) Comment: Replying to [comment:3 pieter.debaets@…]:
I am compiling everything +universal though, might this have something to do with it? The ghostscript port does not a have a universal variant; see #24056. So it is not affected by your decision to compile other ports universal.
Actually it looks like you're trying to build for i386 only. Have you set build_arch to i386 in macports.conf? If so, that's not supported by ghostscript either at this point; see #21545. Replying to [comment:4 takanori@…]:
If so, could you re-install all of ports without +universal and try it again?
Not necessary; I use universal on all ports and ghostscript installs fine nonuniversal.
# I never use +universal because it is not stable.
Nonsense. Let's not baselessly disparage a core MacPorts feature here. Some ports admittedly don't compile universal, or don't work properly when compiled universal, but those are bugs to be filed against those individual ports. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/23783#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
