I tried to build asymptote resulting in an error message:

By log analyzing it seems file texinfo.tex cannot be found even if it is located in/opt/local/share/automake-1.1. For further info take a look at the log file attached.

#25390: Asymptote fail to build (missing texinfo.tex) --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: valerio@… | Owner: loshea@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.1 Keywords: | Port: asymptote --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment(by u.kzhk75@…): I got the same trouble. As asymptote sourceforge site's FAQ mention it, [[BR]] you may see "[http://asymptote.sourceforge.net/FAQ/section2.html#brokenpdftex Question 2.3. What do I do if I get the error]" I put http://asymptote.sourceforge.net/asymptote.pdf in source-building directory. (sorry I forgot it ;-) ) asymptote package is installed fine. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/25390#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

#25390: Asymptote fail to build (missing texinfo.tex) --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: valerio@… | Owner: loshea@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.1 Keywords: | Port: asymptote --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment(by ryandesign@…): Replying to [comment:4 LenoreHorner@…]:

I tried putting asymptote.pdf in /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_graphics_asymptote/work and that didn't work. Where should I be putting it?

[http://asymptote.sourceforge.net/FAQ/section2.html#brokenpdftex Their FAQ] says "put asymptote.pdf in the directory doc", i.e. the directory /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_graphics_asymptote/work/asymptote-1.88/doc

Can this be fixed in the port?

The port should presumably fix the original problem if possible (i.e. allow texi2dvi to find the texinfo.tex file), not bypass it... -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/25390#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
