#20372: glib2 won't build correctly on PPC machines ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Reporter: mta@… | Owner: ryandesign@… Type: defect | Status: assigned Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.0 Keywords: | Port: glib2 ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Comment(by ryandesign@…): Replying to [comment:8 LantzR@…]:
Note that both glib2 and gtk2 were built and working last month, so something changed recently.
MacPorts 1.8.0 was released. It uses the -arch flag on all builds, not just universal builds. glib2 breaks on PowerPC machines when using the -arch flag. The glib2 port includes code to work around this, but only for universal builds. Therefore, non-universal builds on PowerPC now fail.
For me the undocumented ''build_arch'' did not exist in macports.conf
Probably because you upgraded to MacPorts 1.8.0 from a prior version. MacPorts does not update your configuration files. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/20372#comment:10> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
