#38681: mdmg seems to get confused when deps have variants on by default --------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: rogerdpack@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.3 Keywords: mdmg | Port: --------------------------+-------------------------------- Hello. I have this port: $ port deps rdp-projects Full Name: rdp-projects @0_6 Fetch Dependencies: subversion Library Dependencies: ffmpeg, gocr, ImageMagick, mplayer-edl If I run, for instance, $ sudo port mdmg -f rdp-projects it happily builds and works, and creates a dmg file. So far so good. If I then re-run that same command, this is what I then get: $ sudo port mdmg -f rdp-projects ---> Computing dependencies for rdp-projects ---> Creating pkg for rdp-projects-0 ---> Package for rdp-projects-0 is up-to-date ... Error: Requested variants "+gpl2" do not match original selection "". Please use the same variants again, perform 'port clean ffmpeg' or specify the force option (-f). Error: org.macports.mpkg for port rdp-projects returned: Processing of port ffmpeg failed Please see the log file for port rdp-projects for details: /opt/rdp_project_local/var/macports/logs /_Users_rogerdpack_dev_mplayer- svn_mplayer_patches_port_dir_multimedia_rdp-projects/rdp-projects/main.log To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide: http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets Error: Processing of port rdp-projects failed (as a note, specifying -f for force apparently does nothing to help here) $ port clean ffmpeg does "temporarily" overcome the problem, so that it works again once, but then some other dependency will fail in like manner, like perl5. So if I then run a "port clean perl" and try it again, ffmpeg now fails again, since it's "unclean" from the previous run. So I have to manually, one after another figure out all the dependencies, and clean them all (or clean all installed) first. Anyway appears this has been seen before: https://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/macports- users/2009-December/018201.html though I didn't see a resolution. Anyway, see if you can reproduce it.
