[MacPorts] #50321: gpsbabel: install an .app, figure out Qt dependencies
#50321: gpsbabel: install an .app, figure out Qt dependencies -------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: mojca@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Keywords: | Port: gpsbabel -------------------------+-------------------------------- gpsbabel comes with a gui, see http://www.gpsbabel.org/screenshots.html However there is something weird about our configuration. `qmake` pull in some undeclared dependencies on Qt5 ports, but on the other hand it doesn't really install anything (see also #47759) and it doesn't seem to build an app. There is an xcodeproject and a bunch of other stuff in the sources that I didn't try to fully explore yet. In `Makefile.in` there's a target `mac-gui` for example. I believe that dependencies should be resolved and a gui should be provided, either as a variant or as a subport (maybe subport `gpsbabel- gui` would be better?). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/50321> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

I get an app if I use `+gui`, but why do you need dependency on Qt4 or Qt5 when there is no app?
The non-gui program uses it: {{{ $ otool -L gpsbabel gpsbabel: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1226.10.1) /opt/local/libexec/qt5/lib/QtCore.framework/Versions/5/QtCore (compatibility version 5.5.0, current version 5.5.1) /System/Library/Frameworks/IOKit.framework/Versions/A/IOKit (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 275.0.0) /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/Versions/A/CoreFoundation (compatibility version 150.0.0, current version 1256.14.0) /usr/lib/libc++.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 120.1.0) }}} Why exactly, I could not say.[[BR]] Qt does have other features (file IO, network, etc.).
The following is also slightly debatable, but I'll try to figure out if I can come up with a better proposal: {{{ if { ${os.major} < ${qt5_min_tested_version} } { default_variants-append +qt4 } ... }}}
Qt5 is somewhat problematic on `libstdc++` only, so maybe this if should check what the default stdlib is set to as well. Whatever others decide is fine.[[BR]] I do not use gpsbabel and was just trying to lend a hand on the Qt side.[[BR]] If there is a better solution, that would be great.[[BR]] I am hoping that Octave will eventually support Qt5.[[BR]] If that day should ever come, whatever is decided here might prove to be a useful model.
