#47900: libgcc 5.1.0 not building on 10.6.8 ----------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: clykou@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: High | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.3 Keywords: | Port: libgcc ----------------------+-------------------------------- I am trying to install '''numpy''', '''scipy''' and '''astropy''' on my machine (an old 10.6.8 with dual core) and these keep telling me that they must install '''libgcc''' as one of the dependencies. But each time I have tried to install this one, building it takes at least 2 hours (I have waited for a max. 3 hours) even when both cores of the CPU are working and I just have to cancel it, as I also need to do some actual work with that machine! What is it that makes it take longer than 2 hours? Should I be more worried? Is it because the OS is so old? Any help will be most welcome! {{{ workmac:~$ sudo port install libgcc ---> Fetching archive for libgcc ---> Attempting to fetch libgcc-5.1.0_1.darwin_10.x86_64.tbz2 from http://mse.uk.packages.macports.org/sites/packages.macports.org/libgcc [ ] 0.0 % speed: 0 B/s ---> Attempting to fetch libgcc-5.1.0_1.darwin_10.x86_64.tbz2 from http://nue.de.packages.macports.org/macports/packages/libgcc ---> Attempting to fetch libgcc-5.1.0_1.darwin_10.x86_64.tbz2 from http://lil.fr.packages.macports.org/libgcc ---> Fetching distfiles for libgcc ---> Verifying checksums for libgcc ---> Extracting libgcc ---> Applying patches to libgcc ---> Configuring libgcc ---> Building libgcc ^C }}} -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/47900> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
