#24059: curl: configure failure with +universal variant: cannot check for file existence when cross compiling --------------------------+-------------------------- Reporter: keybounce@… | Owner: ryandesign@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.2 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: universal Port: curl | --------------------------+-------------------------- Changes (by ryandesign@…): * status: new => closed * resolution: => fixed Comment: Replying to [comment:8 jmr@…]:

You should just need to pass `--with-random=/dev/urandom` to configure to make it use this value and thus skip the check.

That would presumably have fixed it, but that became unnecessary when upstream [https://sourceforge.net/p/curl/bugs/1014/ changed their code] in May 2011 to no longer test for that file when cross-compiling. The version of curl currently in MacPorts contains the revised code, so it no longer has this problem. Replying to [comment:11 keybounce@…]:

Actually, that doesn't suffice.

Duplicates of " -L/opt/local/lib" in one,

I'll handle that issue in #32287.

--host and host_alias in the other.

That was handled in #24001. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/24059#comment:18> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
