#21164: libscpetre won't compile --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: treaves@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.8.0 Keywords: | Port: --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- I am trying to install gnucash. Apparently one of the many pieces of garbage this brings in is libspectre. Except it won't build. It complains that libgs is needed. Ghostscript did indeed get built, and shows so. {{{ Configuring libspectre Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_print_libspectre/work/libspectre-0.2.2" && ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --disable-dependency-tracking " returned error 1 Command output: checking whether stripping libraries is possible... yes checking if libtool supports shared libraries... yes checking whether to build shared libraries... yes checking whether to build static libraries... yes configure: creating libtool appending configuration tag "CXX" to libtool checking for ld used by /usr/bin/g++-4.2... /usr/libexec/gcc/i686-apple- darwin10/4.2.1/ld checking if the linker (/usr/libexec/gcc/i686-apple-darwin10/4.2.1/ld) is GNU ld... no checking whether the /usr/bin/g++-4.2 linker (/usr/libexec/gcc/i686-apple- darwin10/4.2.1/ld) supports shared libraries... yes checking for /usr/bin/g++-4.2 option to produce PIC... -fno-common checking if /usr/bin/g++-4.2 PIC flag -fno-common works... yes checking if /usr/bin/g++-4.2 static flag -static works... no checking if /usr/bin/g++-4.2 supports -c -o file.o... yes checking whether the /usr/bin/g++-4.2 linker (/usr/libexec/gcc/i686-apple- darwin10/4.2.1/ld) supports shared libraries... yes checking dynamic linker characteristics... darwin10.0.0 dyld checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate appending configuration tag "F77" to libtool checking for gcc...
