#21336: Add a gcc44 variant to gsl ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: luis.beca@… | Owner: jochen@… Type: enhancement | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Resolution: fixed | Keywords: Port: gsl | ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Comment(by jwhowse4@…): Here what happens. When I run an install I get the following error. {{{ port -v install gsl +gcc43 +doc Error: gsl: Variant gcc43 conflicts with gcc43 Error: Unable to open port: Error evaluating variants }}} This is just because the Portfile says that gcc43 conflicts with gcc43. I believe this should read gcc43 conflicts with gcc44. Making this change to the Portfile and trying the install again gives the following error. {{{ port -v install gsl +gcc43 +doc ---> Computing dependencies for gsl. ---> Fetching gsl ---> Verifying checksum(s) for gsl ---> Checksumming gsl-1.13.tar.gz ---> Extracting gsl ---> Extracting gsl-1.13.tar.gz ---> Configuring gsl checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /opt/macports/bin/gmkdir -p checking for gawk... gawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no checking whether make sets $(MAKE)...

I will also attach my config.log file. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/21336#comment:8> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
