#24694: py26-numpy @1.4.1_1 build fails with gcc43 ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: macports-trac@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.2 Keywords: | Port: ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- This is an error in numpy configuration: the compiler flag -arch is passed to gcc4.3, which doesn't understand it. Details follow. OS version: 10.6.3 Machine: Intel MacBook Core Duo gcc_select: mp-gcc4.3 python_select: python26 To reproduce: In environment as just detailed, do "sudo port build py26-numpy".

To report a bug, see <http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets> }}} Analysis: The indicated point (line 657) of the file numpy/core/setup.py is invoking the try_link() method of a very generic command object as a sanity check to see whether the build environment can really compile and link .c files. However, this command object is constructed and used without correcting for the actual build environment of the port, which uses gcc43. Instead, the environment of the Python 2.6 build is picked up by default, and it was built with the macports default of the system /usr/bin/gcc4.2. The hybrid construction of the test compile command passes -arch flags to gcc4.3, which doesn't accept them. Workaround: disable lines 655-657 of the file numpy/core/setup.py. This removes the premature environment check, and the actual resulting build commands invoke gcc4.3 without -arch flags as required. The revised context is: {{{ def get_mathlib_info(*args): # Another ugly hack: the mathlib info is known once build_src is run, # but we cannot use add_installed_pkg_config here either, so we only # updated the substition dictionary during npymath build config_cmd = config.get_config_cmd() # Check that the toolchain works, to fail early if it doesn't # (avoid late errors with MATHLIB which are confusing if the # compiler does not work). # st = config_cmd.try_link('int main(void) { return 0;}') # if not st: # raise RuntimeError("Broken toolchain: cannot link a simple C program") mlibs = check_mathlib(config_cmd) posix_mlib = ' '.join(['-l%s' % l for l in mlibs]) msvc_mlib = ' '.join(['%s.lib' % l for l in mlibs]) subst_dict["posix_mathlib"] = posix_mlib subst_dict["msvc_mathlib"] = msvc_mlib }}} Should I report this to SciPy? -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/24694> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
