#27738: webkit-gtk parallel build issue -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: devans@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.2 Keywords: | Port: webkit-gtk -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------- webkit-gtk has a strange build problem for me on Snow Leopard. I get this error: {{{ CXX JavaScriptCore/pcre/libJavaScriptCore_la-pcre_tables.lo In file included from JavaScriptCore/pcre/pcre_tables.cpp:73: JavaScriptCore/pcre/chartables.c:13: error: conflicting declaration 'const unsigned char jsc_pcre_default_tables [0u]' JavaScriptCore/pcre/pcre_internal.h:382: error: 'jsc_pcre_default_tables' has a previous declaration as 'const unsigned char jsc_pcre_default_tables [480]' JavaScriptCore/pcre/chartables.c:32: error: expected primary-expression at end of input JavaScriptCore/pcre/chartables.c:32: error: expected `}' at end of input make[1]: *** [JavaScriptCore/pcre/libJavaScriptCore_la-pcre_tables.lo] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 }}} Line 382 of pcre_internal.h reads: {{{ extern const unsigned char jsc_pcre_default_tables[tables_length]; }}} And earlier in that file we have: {{{ #define cbit_length 96 /* Length of the cbits table */ }}} {{{ #define cbits_offset 256 #define ctypes_offset (cbits_offset + cbit_length) #define tables_length (ctypes_offset + 128) }}} So that looks fine. But in chartables.c on line 13 we have: {{{ const unsigned char jsc_pcre_default_tables[0] = { }}} That's wrong. And in fact, chartables.c ends with the line: {{{ /* This table is a case flipping table. */ }}} (There should be a lot more after that line.) If I manually run dftables (the program that creates chartables.c), a complete correct-looking file is created. If I delete chartables.c and rerun the port install, it recreates chartables.c correctly. I think it's a parallel build issue. dftables tries to read values from pcre_internal.h, and this will fail if pcre_internal.h has not been written yet. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/27738> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
