#51287: Inkscape crashes on startup if enchant is installed with +applespell -------------------------------+---------------------- Reporter: jo.vanoost@… | Owner: devans@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Resolution: fixed | Keywords: Port: inkscape enchant | -------------------------------+---------------------- Comment (by raimue@…): Replying to [comment:9 devans@…]:
I've updated the dependencies in inkscape in r148331, requiring enchant +aspell -applespell. This fixes the spell checking issue reported here although enchant has to be manually installed with these variants for the build to succeed. Will do the same for inkscape-devel shortly.
This forces everyone with inkscape installed to manually switch the enchant variants before their upgrade can continue, as the default installation is still enchant +applespell. I got multiple reports (personally and on IRC) from people that were unsure what to do. The error message is a bit confusing and does not tell users how they are supposed to proceed: {{{ ---> Fetching archive for inkscape Error: Failed to archivefetch inkscape: enchant must be installed with +aspell and without +applespell. }}} To document it somewhere, the command to switch variants before attempting an upgrade of inkscape would be: {{{ $ sudo port upgrade --enforce-variants enchant +aspell -applespell }}} -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/51287#comment:10> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
