[MacPorts] #34122: Apple-GCC 4.2 doesn't build
#34122: Apple-GCC 4.2 doesn't build -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: darylew@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.4 Keywords: | Port: apple-gcc42 -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- System: an August-2002 eMac G4 running Mac OS X 10.4.11 Tiger/PowerPC (32-bit) Built-in Compiler: Apple-GCC 4.0.1 w/ XCode 2.5 A little while ago, I did the standard "selfupdate" and "update outdated" cycle. It ended because "apple-gcc42" was added as a dependency to something I already had. The log for that program indicated that it was expecting that my system to be more Intel compatible than it is. Tried sending a message to the MacPorts-Users list for help, but it was rejected for attaching too large a document (the uncompressed log file). The admin suggested watching Issue #33939. That issue just got fixed. I did "clean apple-gcc42", "selfupdate", and "update outdated". I got another bad ending due to apple-gcc42, but this time I can't find what exactly is wrong (from a brief search of the log, at least). I'm going to attach the log for apple-gcc42 from this second attempt. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/34122> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

I was quite surprised that it wanted "apple-gcc42" (and "llvm-3.0") as dependencies. It's still building at this time, but the apple-gcc42 part passed! {{{ (doing cctools-headers) ---> Building apple-gcc42 ---> Staging apple-gcc42 into destroot ---> Installing apple-gcc42 @5666.3_4 ---> Activating apple-gcc42 @5666.3_4 ---> Cleaning apple-gcc42 (doing llvm_select) }}} I didn't do any updates; was it just a minor data burp? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/34122#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

("1" looks like a positive integral argument to me.) I'm not sure why it occurred, nor why when you tried again it would then work. Do not be surprised that gcc47 required apple-gcc42. We are considering making ''all'' ports require apple-gcc42 on Tiger, since the gcc 4.0 included with Tiger's Xcode is so old. More importantly, the linker in Tiger's Xcode is very old. llvm-3.0 is a dependency of ld64, and ld64 is a dependency of all the gcc4''x'' ports now. I don't know why ld64 was added as a dependency of the gcc4''x'' ports globally instead of just for Tiger but presumably there is a reason. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/34122#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

a. He said it already built, just by trying again (without cleaning).
Yeah, but I'm suspicious of things like that which magically go away. I would like to see a clean second attempt.
b. Just installing the gmake port won't do anything; MacPorts uses "make" and the gmake port installs "gmake". Getting the port to use gmake would involve changing build.cmd.
True. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/34122#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Can you please try installing the gmake port and seeing if that allows apple-gcc42 to build?
I already have gmake installed: {{{ gmake @3.82_0 (active) platform='darwin 8' archs='ppc' }}} (from "port -v installed gmake"). But as [comment:5 ryandesign@…] said, it wouldn't matter because MacPorts isn't set up to call it when building apple-gcc42. Should I try cleaning/uninstalling apple-gcc42 and building it again, anyway? On a related note, I reopened my issue #33268, since llvm-3.0 has become an indirect dependency for the later GCC lines. (Right after my [comment:1 "all-fixed?" comment], "llvm-3.0" followed "llvm_select" and failed building.) -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/34122#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

See the dupe of it. Tiger/ppc is one of the least supported combinations due to lack of interest and resources. Please try llvm-2.9. If it builds, we'll use that for Tiger's cctools. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/34122#comment:8> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
