#35949: povray @3.6.1_7 Build failure with libpng 1.5 ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: murrayeisenberg@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.2 Keywords: haspatch | Port: povray ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Changes (by ryandesign@…): * cc: ryandesign@… (added) * keywords: libpng => haspatch Old description:

OS X 10.8.1, Xcode 4.4.1 with corresponding command-line tools.

After doing 'port selfupdate' I ran 'port upgrade outdated'. The latter aborted after:

{{{ ---> Attempting to fetch povray-3.6.1_7.darwin_12.x86_64.tbz2 from http://lil.fr.packages.macports.org/povray ---> Fetching distfiles for povray ---> Verifying checksum(s) for povray ---> Extracting povray ---> Applying patches to povray ---> Configuring povray ---> Building povray Error: org.macports.build for port povray returned: command execution failed Please see the log file for port povray for details: /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_graphics_povray/povray/main.log Error: Unable to upgrade port: 1 }}}}

In the log, aside from many "deprecated" warnings, the first error listed is:

{{{{:info:build png_pov.cpp:170:19: error: member access into incomplete type 'png_struct' (aka 'png_struct_def') :info:build longjmp(png_ptr->jmpbuf,1); :info:build }}}} ^

There were numerous other errors of the same kind.

In response to a message I posted to macports-users@lists.macosforge.org, Jeremy Lavergne <jeremy@lavergne.gotdns.org> replied, "That's due to the libpng API change recently; we'll need to update all the packages affected."

For other software affected by this incompatibility I've been able to find patches in other distributions to fix it. But for povray what I found is that they instead updated to a release candidate of 3.7.0, and I'm inclined to agree that's a better choice, since 3.6.1 is so old. I'm attaching a patch that updates the port to 3.7.0.RC6, and a few extra patches needed to make this compile. It builds for me on Mountain Lion, but I am not familiar with povray and don't know how to test whether it functions correctly. If there are no objections, I'll commit it, but I would prefer to first have confirmation that it works (from someone familiar with povray). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/35949#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Maybe this should just be committed without feedback since something that builds is better than something that doesn't?

Yes, I think I'll probably do that. I'd rather move forward to the current presumably-soon-to-be-released version than continue to languish with an 8 -year-old one. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/35949#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
