#32634: building R with debug symbols --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: macporter90210@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: request | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.3 Keywords: | Port: R --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- I want to build R with debug symbols so I can more easily debug my C extensions and how they interact with R. I modified the portfile to use apple's gcc and the -g flag. It installed fine, but it seems that the debug symbols aren't found by gdb. 1. What should I do so that when I compile with -g, the symbols can be found? 2. Do I need to use apple's rather than the mp gcc to do this? 3. I think other people might find this useful so it would be nice if the debug variant, after appropriate corrections can be added to the port. I attach the port diff. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/32634> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
