#27280: MacPort port upgrade fails with readline in /usr/local/lib in Snow Leopard 10.6.4 ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: vulcan_@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: reopened Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: MacPorts | ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Changes (by vulcan_@…): * status: closed => reopened * resolution: wontfix => Comment: I would like you to reconsider the decision on this defect. The reason is that we are not talking about files in /usr/local/ but rather about a version of the library installed in /usr/lib .. thus it is a system library that is part of Mac OS X .. so you can expect it to be there and MacPorts should be able to cope with it. now i see a similar problem with #27316 .. /usr/lib/libcrypt is being taken before /usr/local and /opt/local is not even being looked at. there is, according to me, a serious problem with MacPorts that could be fixed by adding -L/opt/local/lib to the link statements i have been trying to learn enough about Portfiles to figure out how to do this when this problem shows up in a port .. and i would like to find out if there is a global setting that will fix this .. i have already tried {{{ DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/subversion/lib:/opt/local/lib: }}} in my shell env and that does not solve it. so .. can we please have a good look at the situation. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/27280#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
